'Homeshoring' to trump offshoring?

The question for this forum is "Do you think this will catch on and become a mainstream word?" Why or why not?

See Where is IT Going in the Next 5 Years ( forum656 ) for a discussion on the subject.

Good Luck

Offshoring" will make it. But "homeshoring" or "homesourcing " are DOA.

The reason is those two terms are misleading. For one, they are not the opposite of "offshoring". When I first heard them, I thought of something totally different then what they actually stand for.
