Would be nice to have a youtube2commons type script on toolserver or elsewhere. Magnus wrote this nice http://toolserver.org/~magnus/url2commons.php script that could potentially be extended for this cause.
If the Youtube api exposes files to be downloaded it can be added to any tool. I could easily modify one of my tools to not rip a Flickr or Panoramio stream, but a Youtube stream, but only if the source file is easy to download. Maybe I'll just do uploading of Flickr clips first.....

Hi Maarten,
For casual use, I suggest using the PwnYouTube bookmarklet: http://deturl.com/bookmarklet-to-directly-download-videos-from-youtube.asp
Note that other bookmarklets are currently broken due to recent YouTube design changes. I don't have experience with YouTube's API, but JavaScript execution seems to be the way to go.
Sincerely, George

Hi video people,
Does anyone have any experience with downloading Youtube clips? Maybe using the Youtube Api? Would be nice to offer an automated tool to upload a Youtube clip to Commons. For example http://www.youtube.com/user/whitehouse contains quite some interesting (public domain) clips like https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/File:President_Obama_on_...
