- <div class="date">15th September 2012</div>
- <div class="body"><p>After the
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/IETF_standardize_its_first_multimedia_codec__Opus.html">Opus
-codec made</a> it into <a href="http://www.ietf.org/">IETF</a> as
-<a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6716">RFC 6716</a>, I had a look
-to see if there is any activity in IETF to standardise a video codec
-too, and I was happy to discover that there is some activity in this
-area. A non-"working group" mailing list
-<a href="https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/video-codec">video-codec</a>
-was
-<a href="http://ietf.10.n7.nabble.com/New-Non-WG-Mailing-List-video-codec-Video-codec-BoF-discussion-list-td119548.html">created 2012-08-20</a>. It is intended to discuss the topic and if a
-formal working group should be formed.</p>
-
-<p>I look forward to see how this plays out. There is already
-<a href="http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/video-codec/current/msg00003.html">an
-email from someone</a> in the MPEG group at ISO asking people to
-participate in the ISO group. Given how ISO failed with OOXML and given
-that it so far (as far as I can remember) only have produced
-multimedia formats requiring royalty payments, I suspect
-joining the ISO group would be a complete waste of time, but I am not
-involved in any codec work and my opinion will not matter much.</p>
-
-<p>If one of my readers is involved with codec work, I hope she will
-join this work to standardise a royalty free video codec within
-IETF.</p>
