Well, there are some lawyer we can just consult to put a thombstone on this discussion? It will going to nowhere if we can't do this single "clearing" of legal issues. In fact, this is the only hurdle to put cdrtools in [community] repo (well, someone needs to adopt it, too).
Seems that won't happen, because: - this discussion comes up now and then, I've seen exactly the same discussion on the fedora-legal lists without outcome - the anti-cdrtools people state that CDDL and GPL are incompatible, some have lawyers who back that statement
Just to make it clear: There is not a single claim from a lawyer that confirms the claims from the hostile downstram packager.
