I've been expecting to have to explain why I did it this way, I'm kind
of surprised it took this long. ;)

There'd be a lot of good things about having these on YouTube, but
YouTube only allows videos of 10 minutes in length.  That would mean
we'd have to divide the video into about 12 parts.  Aside from that, I'm
having a hit put out on whoever came up with this idea to stuff video
into Flash files.

I got the idea to put stuff up on archive.org from our friends at LILUG,
but I'm reluctant to put the digital camera videos up there when we've
got these DV tapes which should be better quality, and that's what I
want to have saved for posterity.  The digital camera videos are
essentially for the sake of having *something*, and to hopefully
encourage more people to volunteer to help out, because while we've had
some great people help out, we don't get enough of their time to get
across the finish line.  As my grandmother used to say, many hands make
light work.
