=========Not rapidly enough, as far as I'm concerned. Also, the larger 
companies are more apt to work with remote employees. Smaller companies are 
still stuck in the Dark Ages, and I can't say why, although, I can complain

search on "SQL Server developer" allowing telecommute. Potential clients 
still want me to sit in a cubicle under their thumb. I didn't do that 10 
years ago and I don't know why I would do it now -- but doesn't seem any 
better than 10 years ago.
