[game_preservation] Preservation round table at gdc?

[Henry Lowood]

All,

Due to the lighting (or lack thereof) in the room, I couldn't tell if we 
were being videotaped.  Not all sessions are.   There were perhaps 50 
people in the audience at the high-water mark.  The presentations were 
pretty snappy, and we covered a bunch of different topics, so the 
content was good (if I say so myself) and I made several new and useful 
contacts after the panel concluded.
