The camera I used produces only MP4 files - but later today i will
convert all of those into OGV files, and make them available for anyone
to download. One advantage of YouTube was that I could just push the MP4
and it takes it - but even there, and I have mentioned this before, I
will also convert the MP4 format into WebM (more free by far) and
replace the youtube files with these re-formatted files. 

As for reusing parts of them in other work,of course that would be a
great outcome IMO, once they are up as OGV anyone, appropriate, could
grab and work on that.

Also as an aside - there was a couple of people that would be willing to
do some type of interview, video or otherwise, with regards to
converting entire schools (private and charter) to LibreOffie. In these
cases the schools are already converted to OO.o but, in both cases, a
move to LibreOffice is imminent. I have email addresses for these folks
and will pass along to the most appropriate individuals for follow up.
[I got into that because one did a video on the list above, but _they_
decided not to mention the school project on video at this time as they
did not want to promote OO.o, only LibreOffice going forward for this
person. The video is just a simple 'your great message, quite in line
with what others had done all weekend]

Thanks

Drew
