Please have a look at the German open Source Center BerliOS at www.berlios.de
BerliOS will continue to support free hosting of cryptography projects even
when US laws change and don't allow to host cryptography projects in the USA.
Also look at sourcewell.berlios.de, the first Open Source announcement service
that itself is implemented as Open Source project.

***************** Important news ****************************

For the 'Slottable Source Plugin Module' SSPM Features read README.SSPM

***************** Please Test *********************************

NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a20:

*******
NOTE: this is _not_ a release that starts a new aplha/beta series of
	dirtibutions. The only reason is to add certain new CD/DVD features
	that are important.

	So _please_ do not send any patches except when you like to fix
	extreme bugs. I am currently mainly working on stable incremental
	restore featurs for star-1.5-final.
	Once star-1.5-final is out, cdrtools will start a new developent cycle.
*******


All:

-	Schily includefiles are now installed with "make install".

-	Try to avoid a program execption with a call to access(".", E_OK|F_OK)
	caused by a libc bug from the Microsoft C-compiler "cl".


Libschily:

-	mem.c moved from libfind to libschily

Libparanoia (Ported by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):

Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

Libfind:

Libscg:

-	Warn Linux users to prefer dev=ATA: over dev=ATAPI:

-	Print correct error message (using the right errno) in case that
	libscg tries to open more than one file on Solaris.

Rscsi:

Cdrecord:

-	Cdrecod now default to the write mode "-sao" in case that no write mode
	has been specified. Cdrecord -multi continues to default to -tao.
	If your drive does not support -sao, or if cdrecord does not support -sao
	for your drive, you should now call cdrecod -tao.#

-	If no dev= option has been specified or of dev= only contains a SCSI transport
	specifyer but no address, cdrecord now searches the SCSI address space and
	if exactly one CD-ROM drive is found, this drive is used.

	Note that this will not work on user unfriendly platforms that do not allow
	SCSI address scanning or that do not allow to scan for SCSI drives in a single
	address space (like Linux) this new feature does not work.

The two modifications from above now allow dummies to call "cdrecord iso-image"
in case they are on a user-friendly OS that allows "cdrecord -scanbus" without 
any further parameters to find all CD-ROM drives.

-	"cdrecord file file" now works.

Cdda2wav (By Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

-	If no dev= option has been specified or of dev= only contains a SCSI transport
	specifyer but no address, cdda2wav now searches the SCSI address space and
	if exactly one CD-ROM drive is found, this drive is used.

	Note that this will not work on user unfriendly platforms that do not allow
	SCSI address scanning or that do not allow to scan for SCSI drives in a single
	address space (like Linux) this new feature does not work.

Readcd:

-	If no dev= option has been specified or of dev= only contains a SCSI transport
	specifyer but no address, readcd now searches the SCSI address space and
	if exactly one CD-ROM drive is found, this drive is used.

	Note that this will not work on user unfriendly platforms that do not allow
	SCSI address scanning or that do not allow to scan for SCSI drives in a single
	address space (like Linux) this new feature does not work.


Scgcheck:

Scgskeleton:

Btcflash:

Mkisofs (By Jörg Schilling and James Pearson j.pearson@ge.ucl.ac.uk):

-	Print "correct inode" info on stderr in order to avoid problems
	from mkisofs | cdrecord in multi session mode. Thanks to a report
	from Oliver Valencia.

-	Hide /rr_moved by default.

-	Do not count /rr_moved for the link count of /


TODO:
	-	read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
		or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer for this task!

		Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation
		between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660
		names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are
		untranslated with respect to the original files on the
		master (UNIX) filesystem.

	-	add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.


CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
For more information read README.win32

The files are located on:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha ...

NOTE:	These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some
	minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from
	ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
	Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
