I've just completed re-encoding our entire footage of Free Play 2007 up on youTube for easy access. Looking back at the sessions and keynotes that Next Wave and ACMI organised, I have to say that there's an incredible wealth of information to be gathered, making this absolutely essential viewing for those into independent game development. Yes, we have the *entire* conference with all the sessions and keynotes on there for viewing!
