Debian generously offers a place for technical discussions of CD burning affairs (including CD successor technologies). My due thanks for that. So please let us ignore any non-technical ornaments rather than making them an issue which obscures the original purpose of this list. One can live well with anybody here if one just does not put too much weight on people's personal way of expression. > cdrecord had better play nice with hald, else cdrecord is going to > disappear sooner or later for lack of users... I would be glad if i knew any documentation about reliable and stable ways to influence hald's access to CD devices. Something like a locking protocol or so. And maybe without getting dependent on Glib or Mono. As for being away from the window, look at #3 of http://freshmeat.net/stats/#popularity It's not that easy. Before cdrecord would vanish due to lack of good cooexistence with Linux there first would have to be established alternatives. (I could offer some interesting candidates, btw.) And then one have to make GUI apps and people go away from cdrecord. Good luck with that part. > and I see that now, three years later, nothing has changed. Hey. Several things have changed: libburn and its apps work for CD, DVD and BD. cdrskin can substitute for cdrecord in most of the CD use cases and outperforms it with DVD and BD. xorriso combines a versatile multi-session ISO 9660 editor with the appropriate burn capabilites. I dare to amend that i myself can now give user support about MMC problems here. I could not have done that 3 years ago. So there has been progress since then.
