Are you a victim of the lies from the non-social Debian people?
The fork happened because a Debian packetizer wanted to get more attention in order to get a better chance to get a job at the company "Nero" after he finished his studies. This is of course a "reason", but a very selfish one...
Ach, Joerg.
Do you have problems with facts? I guess that you like to claim that "the fork" happened because of a license change in cdrtools.... the usual lie spread by Debian people. Just stupid that the license change happened two years _after_ Debian started their buggy fork and after two years of constant personal attacks from Debian. As you see, the license change was done in defence to Debians attacks. The only reason for the fork was the attempt of a person to get a job at Nero.
That's not really relevant as most people use libburnia these days.
Why should people use something that supports less features than cdrtools?
People don't have to use anything. But distributions have the right to choose what they package and what they don't. They decided against cdrecord but that doesn't keep anyone of downloading cdrecord from your website and installing it. So I don't see the problem here.
People who like to get quality and reliability use cdrtools. I of course cannot prevent people from using different software. A distro that does not include legal reliable software like cdrtools however is a bad distro because it makes it harder for people to get what they like. I should give you an example.... More than 10 years ago, my institute leader asked me to come to his office where one of the managers of the Bundeskriminalamt was sitting. This person asked me why he is forced to self compile cdrtools in order to get working software. Note that this definitely was not a software geek. BTW: unless you are able to prove that there really is an issue with bootable CDs, it seems that I safely may assume that there is no such issue.
