Caveat: The channel mapping (what channel goes to what speaker) isn't
specified, yet - so that's currently the job of the 3D soundengine to
play the stuff in the right place. (just in case i'm not totally wrong
here ... ;P)

Monty, will these specs be part of RC4 (indirectly, as a reference tool
or so) or are they coming with the complete specs for 1.0?
