Comment(by hoene@…):

 No consensus either until now. Again two opinions:

 a) "To have similar requirements as G.718 and to consider at least cross
 tandeming conditions with G722.2@12.65 in the characterization phase."

 b) "I think that transcoding must be an explicit non-goal for this codec."
 "Sorry, but I still do not understand the need for this testing.  In a
 cell network to VoIP topology, the codec selected must be an ITU codec
 which we already know are working fine for transcoding.  In a VoIP to VoIP
 topology the codec selected is the one defined by this WG and by
 definition no transcoding is needed.  And that's it, no test needed,
 because nobody will use it this way."

 Again, I would suggest to look for volunteers who want to make the
 subjective tests with G.722.2 and CODEC.
