When you do decide to open the codec, you should talk to xiph.org about patent defensibility. If you want it open, but don’t build a large enough moat (multichannel, other bitrates, bit depth, echo and phase control, etc then the licensing org will offensively patent or extend your creation.
Thanks for the information about the license and patent. It can work with any bitrates for Halac. However, more than 2 channels and 24/32 bit support outside 16 can be added.
