[Vorbis] Multi-channel support

Hi All,

Are multi-channel (more than 2) formats fully supported in the OggVorbis specification ?  I couldn't
find any information about multi-channel support on xiph.org.   I've used 'oggdropXPd' to encode a
5.1 wavefile and the Xiph OggVorbis libraries (vorbisfile.dll) to decode the file successfully,
however the order of the channel interleaving is different to the original wave file (a 5.1
WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE file).   Is the channel order specified for OggVorbis files, or is there a way
I can retrieve this information from the file itself ?

On a related note ... do any of the encoders assume that a particular channel contains LFE only ?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Dan
