As far as I understand it, the UDF writing support in linux only works on DVD-RAM and other block devices. CD-RW unfortunately (at least as far as I know) is not supported as a block device for random access, so I don't think you can format and mount a cd-rw yet. DVD-RAM on the other hand works perfectly with UDF. Perhaps somebody has some paches that add support for CD-RW UDF, but it certainly isn't standard in the kernel yet.
