Each files is about 2GB size... As commons allow us to upload only 100MB per file, we will need later to resize them and upload them via the sys-admins.. Now we trying to finish working on the original files so they could be upload to youtube. Commons is, of course, is our next task...

Itzik you can create a bugzila request to that. I created one for Wikipedia Academy in Portugal last year ( https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26454 ) and you can do the same with Wikimania ones. Even each one being 2GB _____ *Béria Lima* http://wikimedia.pt/(351) 925 171 484

I'd be happy to import stuff for you if you file a bug. What I need is:
* URL(s) to ** the files themselves. They should already have the correct names ** the file description page (wikitext) for each file, as a .txt file. So the description page for Foo.ogv should be in Foo.txt *** as you might glance from this, video should be encoded as OGG Theora to be uploaded to Commons. Or at least I think that's the format they prefer over there (right?) * User name to use for the upload * Your promise you'll be on line when I import this and will respond to any pushback from the Commons people if there's something wrong with your file description pages (templates, licensing, categorization, etc.). I'm just a tech guy, I don't deal with that stuff
Providing the files as ZIP/TAR/TGZ archives is fine (and preferred for larger numbers of files). As long as I can get the files to the cluster using wget (this means the URLs must be publicly accessible without logins or passwords!) and standard tools such as tar and unzip, I'm happy. If you really have a lot of data (as you might for what's probably on the order of 5x3x6=90 hours of video) and are having trouble hosting all of it, you can also put it on a data carrier (say a stack of DVDs) and mail it to the datacenter by snail mail. But RobH can tell you more about that option, should you need it.

...and just generally, if you have questions or need help while doing it, Roan's a really nice, approachable guy, so feel free to ask him offlist. :-)
Is it actually a good idea to upload such big videos to Commons? Have the problems with buffering/downscaling or whatever been solved so that people can actually watch such videos without downloading them? This might be considered less of a problem because they'll also be on YouTube, but it would be nice to have usable videos on wiki, while the big ones can easily be uploaded to archive.org.

You can upload them to Internet Archive.

So far we have: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Videos_of_Wikimania_in_Haifa and http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=WikimediaIL#grid/uploads
Both are so far incomplete. Consider this a nudge!
