This is useful information. A couple comments:

I wasn't aware that we'll be getting a new GC. Was there an 
announcement?

I strongly prefer stretching them out - even stretching them out 
over the whole year. YT is such that stuff disappears in their 
algorithmic black hole. An even stronger preference would be to 
post on the blog when they come out, with a short summary of the 
talk or something and an embedded video, so I don't need to 
tangle with YT's algorithm. For some reason, even if you 
subscribe to a channel, new videos won't always show up in your 
subscriptions feed.
