COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

As a sitting TSV AD, I applaud 

"It should include, but may not be limited to, the ability to support
fast and flexible congestion control and rate adaptation, ..."

Thanks to the group for going there. This seems uber important.

I'm balloting Yes with heartburn, based on this text:

"In developing the codec specification, the WG may consider information
concerning old prior art or the results of research indicating
royalty-free availability of particular techniques."

What I had assumed based on the BOF is that NETVC intends to use
non-traditional techniques to (I'm quoting from the "DAALA coding tools
and progress" slides at the BOF)

"Replace major codec building blocks with fundamentally different
technology

"Be sufficiently different from existing approaches to avoid large swaths
of patents"

as DAALA has done - at least, I assumed that was the point of showing
these slides at the BOF.

Am I misunderstanding, or is NETVC back to using traditional approaches,
where looking at old prior art matters more?

I agree with Martin's initial Discuss, and I mention that to thank you
for the change into "seek cross-area review". I do see that as stronger
than "liase with".
