Since HuaLu China group co. and China Film Group co. announced to join BDA, HuaLu already proposed DRA and AVS codec to BDA. I think at last BDA will adopt these tow standards as optional. And also Chinese government will also adopt BD as the next generation DVD.

They also announced to build a authoring center.
