Some further information about this (and how it relates to the Daala effort):
HN article: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10042469

Brief punchline of HN discussion is that Daala and Thor are working

taking good ideas from each other to (hopefully) get something

as part of NetVC effort (IETF proposed standard).
