Could you please explain this? Do you like to confuse people with outdated software? This looks like complete nonsense. The official mkisofs is part of cdrtools since a long time and the official mkisofs that is part of cdrtools has major enhancements compared to the completely outdated stuff you present! Also note that there was an official mkisofs with version number 1.13 that has been published on July 20th 2000. > This release implements a few new features relative to the previous one > (mkisofs 1.12b5).

It seems that you like to fool people with buggy software.

The mkisofs in cdrtools is _not_ a fork but the official release. You also do not mention that the even outdated version of mkisofs you are using contains code from me. If you really like to start a project on completely outdated sources, use a different name!
