The OPUS codec, defined in RFC 6716, can scale from low bit-rate narrowband speech to very high quality stereo music, making it suitable for a wide range of audio applications. The IETF 87 Technical Plenary session will cover the past and future of Opus as well as the lessons learned from the standardization process that could apply to future IETF work. To provide additional materials relating to the plenary topic, the IAB has created a wiki. If you have material relevant to the plenary topic (such as papers or test data relating to OPUS), please contribute it to the wiki, either by editing it yourself, or sending it to the IAB <iab at iab.org>. Also, during the IETF 87 Technical Plenary, the MeetEcho team will be running an experiment to enable remote participation in the Technical Plenary using the OPUS codec. Information on how to access on the Remote Participation experiment is also available on the IAB wiki page: http://trac.tools.ietf.org/group/iab/trac/wiki/IETF-87#IETF87TechnicalPlenary:OPUSCodec
On behalf of the IAB, Russ Housley IAB Chair
