I'm concernd about the status of the 2.6.8 packages, which have been
held out of testing for the past week by bug #269164, which nobody seems
to be working on (based on the nil response to the report). Since we
were told 2.6.8 was to be the release kernel for sarge, we've switched
the installer to use it, but we can't finish the switch or release a new
release candidate of the installer while the kernel is not yet in
testing.

Is anything going to be done about the audio cd burning memory leak [0]

this is fixed.  Or rather there's another memleak not mention in the
article you quote (and also present since early 2.6) for which I'll
commit a fix soon.

and the problems with cdrecord [1]?

this was broken in cdrecord but AFAIK has been fixed.

I just tried to burn a CD with the cdrecord in Unstable (4:2.0+a38-1)
and it appears this has not been fixed. That is to say, I can still only burn CDs as root. :(
