"Free Address means multiple offices or workspaces shared by 
individuals on a firstcome, first-served basis. Potential 
candidates for free addressing, also known as
motelling, spend a significant amount of time away from the 
office (for example, at a
client base or on the road) and are equipped with portable 
technology (laptop,
portable printer, cellular modem and phone). These 
candidates may include sales,
marketing, outreach, audit, inspectors, examiners, 
contractors and customer services.
An organization can achieve significant savings by providing 
one workspace for every
2 to 8 employees"

most hits for "free address" + "office" in English result in 
hits originating from Japan though. Maybe the GSA article 
got the term from one of the Japanese research papers?</upd_detl>
