The House Oversight Committee has posted transcripts from the Roger Clemens/Brian McNamee hearing.  More significantly, they've posted transcripts of more than a dozen interviews and depositions, along with affidavits and other evidence.  It's an overwhelming amount of material, but a treasure trove of information even to those who sat through the entire day's testimony.  Since these might disappear, I'll eventually post them here in the archives, but for now just a direct link to the official site.
