Tony Moore (the organizer) recorded each set to MiniDisc, so it's
definitely documented.  I don't know what Ric and Steve's plans are
for their own sets, but Tony has kindly offered to transfer my set to
DAT for me (I don't have a MiniDisc player).  Once I've got that, I'll
likely have the material uploaded to my web site as RealAudio and/or
mp3 within a couple of weeks, and there's also a good chance I'll be
offering at least some of the material on a custom-burned CD-R basis,
which I've been meaning to launch for a while now.

Do it!  It's been incredibly gratifying for me to take all of this
online discussion and see it translated into real-time, tangible,
face-to-face playing and interaction.  Highly, highly recommended.
