I think the example of SVG (a 'markup' language) having a codec
requirement that 3GPP then had to explicitly write-out is
instructive. The attempt there didn't work.
I would be curious for the reasons that 3GPP has taken the requirement
of vorbis out of the spec. Was that a decision based on technical
reasons and could you please explain what these technical reasons
were?

Silvia.
