Cdrkit
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- The correct title of this article is cdrkit. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.
cdrkit is a fork, by the Debian project, of the popular CD and DVD authoring package, cdrtools. One part of the package is wodim (an acronym for Write Optical Disk Media), which is a fork of the cdrecord program from cdrtools.
The fork was in response to a licence change by Jörg Schilling to the CDDL. The Debian maintainers of the cdrtools package judged that this made the software incompatible with the GPL, basing this judgment on statements by the Free Software Foundation and by the creators of the CDDL, Sun Microsystems.[1]
