good point. labs is setup like that now: en running OggHandler and commons TMH
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/File:Citygroup_Center,_San_Francis... http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/File:Citygroup_Center,_San_Fr...
so that part looks good to go. (should also test smaller embeds to be sure)
Ok, so after this, and a couple of brief offlist discussions, we've made a slight change to the plan:
Here's what we'll do: 1) Wednesday, October 31: Deploy to en.wikipedia.org first. There's enough video content there, and robust enough feedback (WP:VPT) that if there's any problem with video, we'll hear about it. Also, more easiliy reversed than going to commons. 2) (TBD, possibly Monday, November 5) Deploy to everything *but* commons 3) (TBD, possibly Wednesday, November 7) Deploy to commons
I'll make the changes to all of the published plans to reflect this.
