Uh, I think Torvalds is aware of the Linux Foundation. From their website: "The Linux Foundation sponsors Linus Torvalds so he can remain independent while working full-time on the Linux kernel." I think you may be confusing Torvalds for the FSF: they would be the ones most likely to get upset by a video promoting Linux in a non-free format. Usually we don't need to promote Linux amongst ourselves (Linux users), but to those not using Linux, and free software, who also happen to be those least likely to be able to view an ogg video. That is not to suggest that there shouldn't be an ogg version, but it does make sense to distribute it in a format viewable by the target audience.
