Re: [codec] Adopt draft-valin-codec-results as a working group item

Dear Herr Dr. Bernhard Feiten,

You are complete right. We discuss this point during the last meeting and
agreed that more care should be taken to objectively report the results of
the listening-only tests.

Your input is appreciated and will be considered in the next version of the
document.

With best regards,

 Christian Hoene
