[Pkg-libburnia-devel] Fwd: Re: new versions of libburn, libisofs and libisoburn uploaded to debian unstable

[George Danchev]

Guys, it seems we will have another 'new upstream' upload soon.
The symbol initiative still holds, but it is not justified to do it for the 
packages currently in sid, but the forthcomming ones. Agreed?

I just released libisofs-0.6.14 with support
for ACL and xattr.
In the next few days there will be libisoburn.0.3.4
with xorriso that makes use of the new libisofs
capabilities.
libburn-0.6.4 will follow soon because of an
interesting feature for BD media.

Teehee.
One should post a follow-up that there is cdrskin
as further alternative.

I recently discussed the Joerg problem with another
Debian developer. He forwarded to Steve McIntyre my
old proposal to patch wodim by cdrskin. Well, the
position of Steve towards libburnia is not very clear.
It seems he waits for some mircacle event that makes
us mature enough in his eyes.
Shrug.


> The reputation of Fraunhofer is certainly damaged in my eyes.

Fraunhofer does not care for open source.
They are a semi-governmental organization which
shall produce patents for the public wellbeing.
Joerg's relation to Debian or Linux is not of
importance. He seems to be working there for
decades. Nearly unfirable under german law.

After all, it's only the internet. Not real life.


Have a nice day :)
