OK, Stefan, I'll look at my diary ;-(> But
1) January 14-23 is ten days ... it is alo both "tentative" and 'next' week; 2 How does all this tye in with "the MPEG-H 3D Audio Workshop" (see copied email below). Whether related, or not, it would seem worth involving Gregory Pallone. If Orange (aka France Telecom) have a commercial interest in ambisonics then we have an ally.

The MPEG audio group is about to start a standardization process in order to create a 3D audio codec. As 3D audio experts, you are welcome to assist freely to the MPEG-H 3D Audio Workshop in Stockholm on July the 18th (all details here: http://www.audioresearchlabs.com/mpeg-h-workshop/101-3D-AudioWorkshop.pdf) This codec should have the ability to flexibly render an audio program to an arbitrary number of loudspeakers with arbitrary configurations. I think it could be a good opportunity to make it also support HOA format (as input of the audio encoder, output of the audio decoder, or both), and not only classical "multichannel" formats such as 5.1, 7.1, 10.2, 22.2... In this context, could you please send an email before July 11th to hoamilit...@gmail.com<mailto:hoamilit...@gmail.com> indicating in just several sentences: - if you support HOA format as an input of the future 3D audio encoder, and why (what use-cases?) - if you support HOA format as an output of the future 3D audio decoder, and why (what use-cases?) - please indicate also what is your point of view: content creator, capturing or rendering device manufacturer, researcher, developer ... Thank you for sharing this valuable information which should help in militating in favor of HOA, and sorry for people not interested in my message. Gregory PS: Don't hesitate to forward this message to people/organizations/companies who could also be interested in attending the workshop and/or helping to militate in favor of HOA. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
