Not unknown, I'm trying to get you to see that the security change was 
made years ago and everyone but you has found a way to make burning work 
without needing to be root. My goal is to get you to realize that your 
software is becoming irrelevant, and things like cdrskin, Fedora 
cdrecord, and the forked version are all going on. The original cdrecord 
could still be the only one, but you chose to make it not work with 
current Linux and the world chose to go with software which does.

I am working on other OSS projects currently, and I'm just letting a 
little hot air out of your claims that all problems are with Linux (and 
not free BSD) rather than your software. A little does of reality...
