I don't know how the various people who run these sites feel about it :),
but natural homes for Open-GIS-Edu documentation, video tutorials,
presentaions, PDFs, etc. could be:
OSGeo Library
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Library
https://visibilitycommittee.osgeo.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList
A new open_gis_edu project on Intevation's Gforge server?
http://wald.intevation.org/
A new open_gis_edu area at freegis.org? (again hosted by Intevation)
http://freegis.org/database/index_html?cat=3&full=n&order=i
If large video files etc are to be uploaded, access must be restricted
to known folks/caretakers in a CVS or SVN (or similar) system and hosts
have to be generous enough to serve the bandwidth.
I think the GRASS wiki is a fine place to collect links, text documents
and small still images until such time something more formal is set up.

Hamish
