We have been running a call for consensus regarding Selecting Recommended Audio Codecs.

At this point the chairs are calling this as "no WG consensus". 

We can however note a strong interest in a non-normative listing of potentially important codecs including a description why they should be considered to be supported in WebRTC implementations. 

In lieu of additional normative text, we believe the WG discussion supports the inclusion of a new section on "Additional Relevant Codecs".  That can contain a list of codecs which are relevant in specific contexts, along with a short description of the context for each. Specifically there seems to be interest in understanding the advantages and costs of G.722, AMR, and AMR-WB. We hope that text would broaden understanding of the WebRTC use case contexts.

The WG chairs
