I wonder how long it'll take them to clean it up? I suspect it'd be
quicker just starting from scratch (and just don't support anything that
doesn't adhere to the MMC spec), but as I have no experience of writing
a CD burning program I'm not in any position to offer useful suggestions :-)
Here's a wonderful snippet from the latest release of cdrtools
(ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/AN-2.01.01a12):
- Use a unique option parser for all programs from cdrtools.
So, another case of NIH syndrome. Rather than report bugs/offer patches
to existing projects (tar vs. star, make vs. smake, etc.) he goes and
reinvents the wheel. Oh well, I guess it's his time to waste :-)
