"Believes" is less that "knows". I know that if you take a very old source
and add new bugs that the result cannot be better than the maintained original.
In contrary to the people behing cdrkit, I carefully listen to the problems uf
the users and I add bug-fixes for cdrtools or workarounds for defective drive
firmware or conceptional bugs in e.g. the Linux kernel. As a result, there are
much less problems with the original software than with the fork.

wodim is known to have problems if not installed suid root. The fact that
several warnings about this fact have been removed by the people behind wodim
just makes the related failures obscure and not easily assignable to missing
privileges.
