Nevertheless, I have a good friend back home who also happens to be a good CF developer and I have sort of made him my 'replacement in case'. I have been on the road for nearly a year in 2005 - before I left I worked out all development work desired by my clients and finished them up. Then I introduced them to my friend and basically told them to contact him in case of emergencies or work that would need to be done immediately. Worked out fine. The clients got professional support and my friend made a bit of money on the side. Once I arrived in Oz, everything was handed back to me. I find that such a contingency plan is a must if you offer professional services as a freelancer (or as a one-man/woman company). Obviously it needs to be somebody who has the qualifications and experience, you need to be able to trust the person and your project documentation needs to be top-notch (it's kind of difficult to contact me in Kyrgyzstan. Heh.). But if you make sure of all these points, you should be fine. Maybe you want to get a freelancer in here and there on bigger projects so that in case of emergency (and we don't have to go as far as dying here) he/she could take over your work without having to read into the projects from scratch. I believe that this 'service' is included in the cash you get from your clients. As much as you expect your car manufacturer to be able to deliver spare parts to the car you bought last year.
