• L0274 version 7.1.3b Transform coefficient coding with reduced number of regular-coded bins
• L0414 Other from the proposal, which makes the QP offset dependent on transfer function, the values shall be signalled in the SPS. Default is not applying (enabling flag=0). If the flag is 1, another syntax element follow indicating the number of intervals (2 bits for 2,3,4,5), and then the luma threshold values and QP offsets between the intervals.
• L0410 CE11-related: On deblocking tC table Meeting notes (L0074) Apply the same logic to VVC (both ATMVP and affine) sub-blocks (on 8x8 grid) as to PU in HEVC deblocking. This means check the deblocking motion conditions for ATMVP and affine motion sub-block boundaries as if they were PUs in HEVC.

• L0198, L0468, L0104 "use fixed subblock size 8x8 for ATMVP (L0198, L0468, L0104, possibly some others). check the first spatial neighbouring motion vector and use this as the reference motion vector for the collocated position for motion vector derivation "
• L0106, L0158 Reset the FIFO table in each CTU row for HMVP
• L0194 use one context for the first bin of the full-block merge index and bypass coding of other bins . for the full-block merge index only at this time, approximately no coding efficiency impact
• L0646 Adopt L0646 (0.66% coding efficiency; weighted prediction should also be put in the draft, but this and weighted prediction would be mutually exclusive at the picture level, when used with OBMC the weights of the neigbours would apply for the neighbour predictors, which is how the BMS software already does it, no consideration in deblocking filter

• L0369/L0055 Adopt 4.2.8 moving ATMVP into the affine merge list (assuming ATMVP operates on a subblock basis, restrict ATMVP mode to CUs of which both the width and height are larger than or equal to 8 (L0055)
• L0090 4.4.12.a (0.38% in RA), merge list size 6 (text in L0090)
• L0266 Adopt history method with merge list size 6, history applied also to AMVP (0.58% gain in RA, text in L0266).
• L0054 Adopt UMVE variant b (1.29% in RA); this needs a better name – e.g., merge with MVD (MMVD)
