[Christian Hoene] Which authors? So far this document has only two selected
editors.

[Christian Hoene] Despite hundreds of emails, what were exchanged on this
mailing list on issues regarding requirements, the editors have been
reluctant to update the requirements document according to the consensus
process on this mailing list. 

If I compare draft-ietf-codec-requirement-02 with
draft-valin-codec-requirements-02, I only see editorial changes.

e=--html&submit=Go!&url2=draft-valin-codec-requirements-02

Sorry guys, if I see this I become very cynical on the standardization
process at the IETF.   The editors have not done their job and the chairs do
not care. At the end, it all looks like rubberstamping with a little bit of
theater.
