COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

There has been considerable  last call discussion about the inclusion of
additional copyright licensing language by the authors. The authors have
agreed to progress the draft without such language, as reflected in
revision 12. If the authors choose to grant additional rights, they may
do so independently. 

[Thanks to the authors for fixing the xml2rfc source issue. I've removed
that bit from these comments]

There has also been last call discussion about the fact that this draft
is intended to be a proposed standard, but it normatively depends on RFC
3533 (the Ogg container format) , which is informational. In my opinion,
this is appropriate because the draft specifies the  encapsulation of
Opus, which is a proposed standard. (RFC 6716).
