Document: draft-ietf-codec-opus-update-08 Reviewer: Robert Sparks Review Date: 2017-08-01 IETF LC End Date: 2017-08-09 IESG Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat Summary: Ready for publication as a Standards Track RFC This document is straightforward in the changes it is making to OPUS. My only note of sadness is that it continues to use a documentation mechanism started by RFC6716 of effectively making a normative reference to the _proceedings_ of previous IETF meetings. (Note that this document does this twice: once for the patch file, which is a convenience - the information is in the draft, and once for the updated test vectors. This is _not_ a convenience, the information is not in the draft. If, for whatever reason, the proceedings URL could not be retrieved, someone could not verify their implementation with the updated test vectors). On the one hand, we've set the precedent, and we could agree to just let this go (I'm recommending that to the IESG with this review). On the other hand, we could make things _slightly_ better (or perhaps just different) by putting the test vectors in the doc as an appendix as a uuencoded compressed tarball.
