Unfortunately, I believe it coincides with an annual meeting I must attend. As for the nonprofit program, perhaps if k12online partnered with a recently incorporated 501.c3 that had some synergistic goals. Or the group could attempt to get added to the Partner Program through the "reputation" method. Post a series of acceptable 10 minute or less videos from past events and get recognition of the solid management of the account. It's unfortunate there isn't a simpler process to meet some of these educational goals. I think the options to download and upload for the auto-timing were my favorite. It's a topic I've heard on a number of occasions in past OTA and MoodleMoot conferences. I know first hand that the ASR for Google Voice has limitations. I can only guess what it might be like with average uploaded video content. I’d definitely consider OTA. Unfortunately, I believe it coincides with an annual meeting I must attend.

I bet there would be a lot of interest. I'm eager to see if we can utilize any of this for k12online this year. Since we're not a registered 501.c3 we don't qualify for YouTube's nonprofit program, and I think you have to be in that or a registered "partner" to publish videos longer than 10 minutes. Any suggestions for us? We're using DotSub but it doesn't have this automated option. The download and upload option for caption files is great too!
