I have updated the GitHub a lot (changed tones to be less chirpy, fixed some smalls) and made a couple of samples (see attachment for MP3 and FLAC of both tone tables, first 16 then 4). Is this good enough to warrant an official BIP number? I haven't built a decoder yet, but it seems like the encoder is working properly (looked at Audacity, seems like it is working), and some people on reddit want to "allow for decoding experiments" What suggestions do you all have for it?
