[theora] feedback European Commission pilot assessment
Dear Sir, dear Madam, I am currently working with the European Commission on a pilot assessment of Video Codecs in eGovernment, more precisely for live video streaming of parliamentary sessions. The results of the analysis will be published for public consultation on IDABC <http://ec.europa.eu/idabc/en/home> website. The following video codecs are on the list: H.264/AVC, VC-1, RealVideo10, Theora, VP8. The assessment is in the context of the CAMSS - Common Assessment Method for Standards and Specifications - project, an initiative of the European Communities' IDABC programme (Interoperable Delivery of European eGovernment Services to public Administrations, Business and Citizens), implemented by the European Commission. Within the context of the elaboration of their National Interoperability Frameworks, Member States are currently organising the assessment of formal specifications, in order to establish their National recommendations. Deciding which formal specifications to recommend often calls for a resource intensive and time consuming assessment. Therefore, CAMSS aims to improve awareness, knowledge sharing and transparency, around the assessment of formal specifications in eGovernment, contributing also to the efficiency of European government organisations thanks to the re-use of analysis' results from other European government organisations. I am in charge of analysing the video codecs according to the CAMSS criteria, which are not limited to addressing the business need and requirements of an eGovernment project (suitability and potential of a formal specification). Other criteria allow to address notions of effectiveness, efficiency and fairness: the organisation or body responsible of establishing, approving and maintaining the standard or specification operates in a specific manner, which may have impact on the consequences of choosing a formal specification. The context within which standardisation is done has an impact on how implementations of the formal specification can be developed and/or used. A third series of criteria analyses how the formal specifications are supported in the market place. We would appreciate your feedback / complementary information / comments on these assessments; could you please provide me with the needed contact within your organisation; to whom I will send the data.
