Subject: [codec] AD review: draft-ietf-codec-guidelines-04

Summary: There are some minor points to address with a revised ID before IETF Last Call.

Section 4 Item 1 should be scoped to codecs produced by this working group - the sentence
right now appears to try to place a requirement on any future work done on codecs in the IETF.

Section 4 item 2 needs to be clear that the software repository is not the authoritative container for
the reference implementation, the RFC is. In particular, this is not requiring the IETF to maintain
the software repository.

Section 6 Item 1 should be tweaked to say "speech codec". Watch for opportunities to clarify this
throughout the document, keeping the comments received for the title of the requirements document
(see <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-codec-requirements/ballot/>).

Nits

Section 2 point 8 should mention the PAYLOAD working group, not AVT

Section 4 point 5 - PLC should be expanded once. Also consider pointing to the
requirements document from this item.

Section 5 before the second bulleted list: IRP should be IPR
