Well, I've been working remotely since I took this job 6 months ago, and
plan to keep doing so :). Looking at the staff page, I see 18 other remote
workers, and that's just the ones I know of! They're distributed throughout
Europe, other bits of the Americas, and the Indian subcontinent. And we do
have a grants programme: check out http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grant :).
