Looks like you missunderstood OpenSource and forks.
Even for Open Source, there is an Author or a group of authors.
The version that comes from the Copyrightholder is the official one.
And in case you also missunderstood forks: A fork is a _working_ and
_maintained_ modified version of a program. What you see with the bastardized
cdrtools versions on Linux is neither working nor maintained, it is just
a result of the religion of the makers who seem to ingnore the wishes of the
users because they do not fix the bugs they introduced.
