Out of curiosity, where did you determine that the code was possibly going
unmaintained? Regarding AMR-WB and AMR-WB+ support, as far as I can tell, the
two codebases seem pretty compatible with each other. Consequently, I wouldn't
find it out of the ordinary if AMR-WB+ was either partially or fully compatible
with AMR-WB; I have not managed to fully verify this as of yet though. The
AMR-WB+ zip archive structure is also a little bit different, in that they
include Win32 binaries for the encoder and decoder, along with a DLL
(er-libisomedia.dll), a static version of the same library with a .lib
extension, and also some static library called 3gplib.lib as well. Some further
investigation is going to be required into exactly what role these libraries
play in the encoding and decoding processes.
