For those who are not familiar with the IETF, the blue dot means WG/BoF chair. In this case, the BoF also happened to be one of the most controversial in recent history. That was an interesting experience, to say the least.
Hope you'll be more active on the mailing list when you back home ;)
Aside question to you. To date time stretching, required by JB was done by the means, outside to a codec. But I feel that codec should have enough information about the speech in the frame to stretch it with high quality. Is that correct feeling? I guess that should be correct for some codecs (like CELP-based), but not for the others (like G.711). Could you comment on this? Avoiding extra CPU-cycles, required for time-stretching would be a very nice (if not a killer) feature for The Ultimate Internet Codec.
PS What is the mood of you, Jason and IESG - should this WG work on developing a codec or rather recommending one of existing or developing codecs?
