I get the sense that some HR people (& immigration) look at 'not working inhouse' as being unemployed - mainly because its so hard to prove exactly how long you were *actually* working on freelance. If I was to look at it that way, then I've been unemployed for periods of up to 3 years. Tangent: I got over worrying about…

This is interesting, good for Maya users, although it will introduce a new learning curve. It appears Autodesk has…
