OK, if you are unbiased I encourage you to immediately stop distributing "cdrkit".

Cdrkit is in conflict with the GPL and the Gopyright law and cannot be legally
distributed in either source or binary. See:

http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html

The current situation is:

-	cdrkit is undistributable

-	several lawyers (including Sun legal and Eben Moglen) see no problems
	with the original software.

Could you explain why you still like to prefer cdrkit instead of the original 
software?
