A minority of participants in the rfc didn't want us to host proprietary files,
or didn't want us to run transcoding software that required proprietary codecs,
on WM servers.  

However passing a proprietary-format file to the Internet Archive, having them
convert it, and uploading the resulting .ogg file seems amenable to all
parties.
