Answer 1

The presentation by Will Law was recorded and can be viewed online, on-demand from the following link:

Will's presentation is an excellent introduction to HTTP Dynamic Streaming.
This presentation is a supersized version of a presentation that Will also will be delivering at Adobe MAX 2010.  MAX session description here:

Supersized in that in the recording above Will spent a bit more time in ActionScript for the OSMF developers in attendance than he will with more general audiences.  Plus supersized in that Will took 1 hour 15 minutes (plus 15 minutes more on Q&A), whereas MAX sessions are 60 minutes, less a few minutes for the Q&A.,
