Will it be a good idea if the wmf or Wikimania writes to YouTube to asked of much details or rights for that?
If the tos is in certain areas ambiguous, I think one can take advantage of that. There are many sites I've noticed that allows one to input YouTube link and it'll allow to download. YouTube hasn't arrested such ones? Even critically saying, viewing a YouTube video, I'm downloading, because it grabs files from the server, sends it in chunks, "is downloaded" onto my PC, and I watch, just that its streaming without saving permanently to the harddrive.
