What amuses me most in this whole story is that many people (not only
from Debian devel side) jumping into this new forked cdrkit project:

  * Joerg Jaspert, developer / project admin
  * Eduard Bloch, developer
  * Steve McIntyre, developer
  * Peter Samuelson, contributor
  * Luis Medinas, Gentoo cdrtools maintainer
  * Christian Fromme, contributor
  * Motoko Aoyama

You see only 40% of folks from Debian camp.

Ask yourself, what is the motivation for those folks?

Clearly, not just Joerg Schilling personality, as some DPL used to
claim.. It is certainly has a lot to do with GPL incompatibility claim
by FSF as I can see it...

Hope my observation might help to make right decisions.
