There is http://www.ee.cuhk.edu.hk/ispacs2005/tutorial/Yu%20Lu.pdf which  
was mentioned here earlier. It left me with the impression that AVS is a  
light-weight version of AVC much like VC-1. Thus I can't see much interest  
outside China as there already is VC-1 for those who need something like  
AVC but faster.
