Smile I2S connector standard pinout...? (RJ-45)

I know it's an odd question since there is no real standard for I2S connectors but I am aware of a few manufacturers using RJ-45 for "proprietary" I2S connections. And the inexpensive and handy Pop-Pulse SPDIF-II unit also has an RJ-45 I2S output (with clear labeling of the pinouts).

My next project in my head involves a non-OS DAC that takes I2S only and want to follow some sort of a semi-standard if it exists.

I believe a certain cable manufacturer even sell audiophile grade RJ-45/CAT5 cables just for this purpose so there's got to be some common pinout, is my thinking.

Any insights into this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
