It's not too hard now if you're running Firefox 3.5.  Just edit your
video in whatever video software is easiest on your machine (e.g.,
Windows Movie Maker) and save a high quality version in a convenient
format (e.g., AVI, MPEG, other common formats), then go firefogg.org,
install the plug-in, click "make ogg", and use the default encoding
settings.

If you're feeling especially ambitious, you can add metadata and/or
fiddle with the resolution and bit-rate settings (all through
firefogg).  Converting to Commons-ready ogg with firefogg is actually
easier than uploading a file to Commons.
