[games_access] GDC + IGDA Tech Migration

[Joshua Caulfield]

Generally yes, these will only be available to IGDA members.  However, if a sig or chapter wants to do one or two that are open to the public, I am ok with that. I AM going to limit that number to 2 or less a year though.
 
Cheers,
Joshua

This is only available to IGDA members, correct?
