This came from the news list, but I didn't get the sense that was a
discussion list so I'm forwarding it to news for discussion.
> Progress Report on MPEG-4 Visual (Simple and Core) Joint Patent License.

This is very encouraging news; however, I noticed that while ISMA 1.0 maps
to both Simple and Advanced Simple (at level 3), this news about likely
licensing activities mentions only Simple and Core.  I do realise that the
M4IF and the ISMA are not at all the same organization, and I realize that
it is the M4IF that is sanctioned by the MPEG and charged with coordinating
licensing activities.  Also, I realize I may be asking about things that
can't be revealed publicly at present and if so then no worries, I apologize
and understand.
That said, I'm wondering if anybody can shed any light on (a) whether or not
Advanced Simple expected to be licensable in early 2002 and (b) if so, is
that through the MPEG LA/M4VisualPGH or perhaps just through MPEGLA sans
M4VisualPHG or perhaps some other means altogether and (c) if anybody from
the ISMA is here perhaps you can share whether or not the ISMA might ralley
now for Core in a quick release of a follow-on interoperability
specificaiton (ISMA 1.1/2.0?) to and (d) how big a difference does the
motion compensation that is in Advanced Simple provide over Core, which does
not have motion compensation AFAIK, make in terms of encoding efficiency.
(I realize that encoding efficiency isn't everything, especially when
compared to some of what Core offers, but still curious....)
Thanks,
