I have no other influence on Debian or other Linuxes than trying to be a good upstream. My opinions about cloning cdrecord and parallel development are known. My substantial alternative proposal is cdrskin, a cdrecord emulator based on libburn. Weaker on exotic CD, stronger on DVD multi-session (up to growisofs capabilities). What i mean with "performance" is to make use of contemporary hardware capabilities and not to stick with the simplistic usage model of mkisofs. Well, some help could be needed for that. GUI programmers could consider to use xorriso as foundation of a ISO 9660 Rock Ridge file manager. Drag in, drag out, delete, tune - all very independent of the media type and with no need to mount the filesystem (or being superuser). C API is sketched and will be extended as demand arises. Wealthy sponsors could send some BD-R media for the freshly sponsored LG GGW-H20L in its freshly sponsored SATA-to-USB box. (Currently i have the same psychological problem as Matt Schulte: shall i touch this prescious one-time media in its shiny wrap ?) Welcome would also be 2x BD-RE media other than the freshly sponsored "RITEK/BW1" and "VERBAT/IM0". Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
