[FOSS4G2016] promo video

[Gert-Jan van der Weijden - Stichting OSGeo.nl]

Hi all, 

Regarding the costs: the OSgeo board decided last week to grant 200 dollars
in order to keep the generic Vimeo Pro alive for another year. Primary for
the hosting of the 2014 and 2015 FOSS4G video's, but also suitable form our
2016 one.

Meanwhile the search for the ideal OSGeo-video hosting platform continues.
See the conference_dev mailinglist for details.


Schöne Grüsse aus Amsterdam,

GJ

Hi Till (and others),

I'm not a big fan of Youtube either ... and Vimeo certainly has it's
limitations, too. Nothing is really for free. Also the FOSSGIS server costs
money.

I'm using for some project Amazon Cloudfront for video conversion and also
video streaming. It can convert videos into common formats, that you don't
need to worry about bitrates supported by whatever device.
And Cloudfront is supposed to deliver video content to clients in the best
way, so it looks like a suitable platform.

What I can't say is, how much it costs, because AWS is terrible to estimate.
It depends mostly how many people watch your videos (traffic). I think video
conversion costs and upload traffic can be ignored.
I would say, that the costs should be OK as part of the marketing budget.
And you don't need to upload it to Youtube or Vimeo ;-)

Cheers,
Daniel
