I thought the JPEG people were supposed to have JPEG XL [1] out by now, and it was supposed to be the open standard for JPEG's next generation. Anyone know what's happening there?

Yes, here's an update: https://cloudinary.com/blog/how_jpeg_xl_compares_to_other_image_codecs https://cloudinary.com/blog/how_jpeg_xl_compares_to_other_im... TL;DR: We're now at "Draft International Standard" stage; soon we'll enter "Final Draft International Standard" stage and at that point the bitstream is effectively frozen and adoption can start. The officially ISO-published International Standard will take until first half of 2021, but the codec should be ready to use before that.
