Are there any plans to and when to support the new opus codec specified in RFC 6716?
Would love to hear that

it will come in with the next ffmpeg update.

It didn't come. Current beta with recent ffmpeg doesn't support Opus yet. It's probably one-line fix. However it would be the best to add direct support by libopus or libopusfile.
Libopusfile API is almost identical to libvorbisfile, so it's really straightforward job to support opus in a native way.

It didn't come because there is no version bump yet and won't be for Frodo

Ok, I see. I'm using Gentoo, so my XBMC build uses external ffmpeg. Thus I'll try patching it myself.

Now that ffmpeg has been updated, I think it's time to bump this thread.

Nope, and neither was speex.
The version of ffmpeg that's in Gotham actually does support both formats, but only if compiled with --enable-libspeex and --enable-libopus.
Flyingrat did post some builds test builds with speex and opus enabled in the ffmpeg version bump thread, but it looks like that change was never merged with the main branch. It was probably just forgotten.
Gotham is in feature freeze, but is adding those two missing arguments (and possibly adding the file extensions) really a "feature"?

get libspeex and libopus to compile for osx/ios/android/windows and we can talk about it after gotham (if there are no licensing issues or so)

I've done that for windows a while ago. So as you said, we won't have time before gotham got released.
that really sucks

if OPUS_FOUND
add_to_ffmpeg_configure(--enable-libopus)
endif

Not only that. XBMC allows building with external libraries (also for FFmpeg), so it could just read a list of decoders/demuxers provided by available libraries. I guess Opus is only one example of decoder that is optional in FFmpeg and I believe that power of open source is flexibility
