The International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) Recommendation
G.711.1 is an embedded wideband extension of the Recommendation G.711
audio codec. This document specifies a payload format for
packetization of G.711.1 encoded audio signals into the Real-time
Transport Protocol (RTP).
Working Group Summary
Was there anything in WG process that is worth noting?
For example, was there controversy about particular
points or were there decisions where the consensus was particularly
rough?
This is a reasonably standard RTP payload format. The document has been
reviewed by the AVT working group and all open issues were addressed
Document Quality
Are there existing implementations of the protocol?
Have a significant number of vendors indicated their plan
to implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that
merit special mention as having done a thorough review,
e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a
conclusion that the document had no substantive
issues? If there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type or other
expert review, what was its course (briefly)? In the case of a Media
Type review, on what date was the request posted?
Media type review was conducted starting May 7th 2008, with no
objections raised. Vendors who contributed to the G.711.1 specification
have indicated their intent to support this payload.

Section 8 last paragraph
OLD
This payload format and the G.711.1 encoding do not exhibit any
significant non-uniformity in the receiver-end computational load and
thus are unlikely to pose a denial-of-service threat due to the
receipt of pathological datagrams.
