Well, there is no project activity on "cdrkit" since May 6th 2007.
Even before, the majority of the changes have been caused by the replacement of
the original build-system by something else and this was a really strange act,
see:
http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html#license
for more information.
It seems that the people who are sesponsible for "cdrkit", finally found that
they don't have the time nor the skills to work on the source. There are many
open bug reports against cdrkit from various Linux distributions and even
simple to fix bugs have not been fixed since more than 9 months.

I internally have a multi-border aware cdrecord, but this would introduce
instability that I cannot have today. I am planning a new "stable" release
very soon after I reveived recent test results for the MacOS X support from
helios.de
The next development period will include multi-border support for DVDs
in cdrecord.
