Is unity 3.0 going to become free eventually like the current unity
Unity 3 will be available for free right away, as soon as we release. 
Do we know of any new features for the indie version? I know of
http://unity3d.com/unity/coming-soon/unity-3
But doesn’t do a good job of telling us who gets what. Main thing I want to know is if indie version will get any kind - even stencil - of real time shadows (that aren’t baked)
We get beast lightmapping, not Global illumination. We get the new Physx with its cloth delights. We don’t get the occlusion culling, or however it is spelled. We get the upgraded mono runtime somethingerother.
We get a bunch of stuff. Don’t worry, its out soon and the official stuff will come along with it.
