Jörg, why don't you just change the license of your cdrtools to a licensing scheme - either change every part of it to the GPL, set it under a dual license or whatever - which is indisputable and doubtless instead of arguing with the distributors all the time over years?
It's really annoying to always read your nonsense regarding the licensing.
The problem seems to be only that people believe the liensing nonsense FUD spread by Debian.
Distributors who did ask their lawyers did either never change to the broken and illegal cod from Debian (Sun) or do again ship cdrtools (Suse).
I still don't understand why you ask mee to introduce a "solution" for a non-existent problem.
You didn't create CD Recording drives either but still you introduced a solution to the problem of writing to them. So, why should that stop you now? People ask you to simply dual-license it because: - it's almost NO effort to you - it will put to an END to any possible misinterpretations and uncertainties - now and in the future - it will show your good will to engage in discussions - people might prefer GPL in some jurisdictions even if you think it's bullshit -- damjan
