Things are not as simple as you seem to believe.
You cannot stay off the conflict. If you use cdrkit, you at least indirectly
support the people who started the conflict and who still constantly spread
wrong information on pretended "licensing issues".
The conflict will not go away before these people stop spreading incorrect
claims.
I am working on Free and Open Software much longer than projects like Linux
exist. It is a pity to see that people are taken for serious who started using
Linux and other OSS projects ~ 5 years ago and who claim that I am against OSS.
I did not stop working on cdrtools, but the person who started the conflict
stoped working on cdrkit more than a year ago. Look at the bug reports and check
what has been done on cdrkit since then. So using cdrkit lso looks like riding
a dead horse.
Do whatever you like but do not claim that you are not part of the conflict as
long as you use cdrkit.
