Alan would know. When I created my screencast on skype (<a href="http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/skype">http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/skype</a>), I didn't do any of the encoding for it. It was a combination of <a href="http://Archive.org">
Archive.org</a>, and Alan himself who also uploaded it to Google Video.<br><br>I come from a podcasting background, where it is a good idea to push your podcast/vodcast out in as many formats as possible to please everybody. Not everyone wants to download a 720p vodcast, and not everyone wants 320x240 quality. Not everyone wants OGG, yet not everyone wants flash video or xvid. I can safely assume that that is the goal here as well.
<br><br>Just noticed that there were subtitles made for the skype screencast in English and Romanian. Thanks to the person/people that wrote those :)<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/13/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">
