There's a session this afternoon at Google I/O that will focus on this: http://code.google.com/events/io/2010/sessions/webm-open-video-playback-html...
I'm not sure if it's going to be streamed live, but I bet it'll hit youtube soon, I'll follow up with a link.

Container will be .webm, a modified version of Matroshka. Audio is Ogg Vorbis.
YouTube is serving up .webm *right now*. Flash will also include .webm.
Comment from WMF already, that WMF is happy to host any free codec. Encoders are available at the project home page.
