Cdrecord:

-	The CDRWIN cue sheet parser has been enhanced to give better error messages:

	-	There are now hints on what is missing in the CUE file

	-	The error message now also contains the column where the problem was detected

-	Allow cdrecord to compile again on a pre-C99 compiler (there was a variable delaration
	past a statement in a function.

-	A description for the *.inf file fomat was added to the cdrecord man page

-	New (previously missing) CD-Text tags have been added to auinfo.c (*.inf file parser):

	Albumsongwriter=
	Albumcomposer=
	Albumarranger=
	Albummessage=
	Albumclosed_info=

	Note that these tags do not appear in the CDDB database.


Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

-	New arg "all" to -t option.

	cdda2wav -B	extracts all audio tacks into separate files
	cdda2wav -tall	extracts all audio tacks into a single files

-	cdda2wav now by default writes a file "xxx.cdtext" with raw binary
	CD-Text data in case cdda2wav was told to retrieve CD-Text.

-	A new option -no-textfile allows to disable the creation of the file "audio.cdtext"
	This version of cdda2wav creates a file "audio.cdtext" or similar (depending on
	the set up file name base) in case that there is CD-Text on the medium and that
	the drives supports to read the CD-Text data with MMC SCSI commands.

-	Fixed a bug in cdda2wav that caused cdda2wav to set up the file name base too late.
	This resultes in the files "audio.cdindex" and "audio.cddb" alwas to have this name
	while the *.inf files use the name base from the cdda2wav arguments. Now all
	files created by cdda2wav honor the file name base.

-	Cdda2wav by default fills empty track specific CD-Text data with the Disk global
	value (if present). A new option -no-textdefaults allows to disable this fallback
	and leaves the related fields empty if they are empty on the mester CD.

-	Fixed a problem with cdda2wav -interactive (used by GNOME GSTREAMER CD-DAE plugin)
	that could cause cdda2wav to dump core in case that there is a data
	session past the last audio track.

-	New (previously missing) CD-Text tags have been added to the *.inf files:

	Albumsongwriter=
	Songwriter=
	Albumcomposer=
	Composer=
	Albumarranger=
	Arranger=
	Albummessage=
	Message=
	Albumclosed_info=
	Closed_info=

	Note that these tags do not appear in the CDDB database.

Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling since 1997, originated by Eric Youngdale):

-	Fixed a bug with file descriptor handling in mkisofs/apple.c

	HELIOS TODO:

	-	Add the HELIOS UNICODE mapping code. This needs to be done 
		at UCS-2 level for Joliet and UDF (instead of UTF-8) and only
		for Rock Ridge (in case of a UTF-8 based target locale) using
		UTF-8 based translations.

	-	Make the Apple extensions work again with "mkisofs -find"

TODO:
	-	Support correct inode numbers for UDF hardlinks

	-	Support sockets, pipes, char/blk-dev specials with UDF

	-	read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
		or RR is present. I am looking for a volunteer 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.
