Why bother? You can always do what I do, ignore him. Cdrecord bugs
don't matter because distributors are smart enough to apply the
appropiate patches. The Linux bugs Joerg has mentioned don't seem to
matter to anyone except Joerg himself. You can always help the libburn
people or fork cdrecord if you don't like it. Please respect the fact
that Joerg has a different view of things. Even though it doesn't seem
to be connected to the world the rest of us know, he is entitled to
it. Perhaps now is a good time to let this thread die? Pretty please?
