Please have a look at the German open Source Center BerliOS at www.berlios.de
BerliOS will continue to support free hosting of cryptography projects even
when US laws change and don't allow to host cryptography projects in the USA.
Also look at sourcewell.berlios.de, the first Open Source announcement service
that itself is implemented as Open Source project.

***************** Please Test *********************************

NEW features of cdrtools-3.01a08:

This is the first localization step for cdrtools. All programs now (hopefully)
call gettext() for all strings that need localization.

-	The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries.

-	The following step will include the extracted strings

-	The last step will include German translations and install support
	for the resulting binary message object files.

----------> Please test and report compilation problems! <---------

***** NOTE: As mentioned since 2004, frontends to cdrtools should *****
*****		call all programs from cdrtools in the "C" locale *****
*****		by e.g. calling: LC_ALL=C cdrecord ....		  *****
*****		unless these frontends support localized strings  *****
*****		used by the cdrtools with NLS support.		  *****

This version compiles on Win-DOS using the Microsoft compiler cl.exe but
warning: due to missing POSIX compliance with basic features (e.g. stat()
does not return inode numbers), there are many problems with the resulting
code and thus it is recommended to better use a POSIX layer on top of 
WIN-DOS.

All:

-	conf/runrmt_android has been enhanced to better deal with the
	"runrmt -r file-to-test" calling variant.

-	configure now ignores a stramge directory that is created on Mac OS X
	when compiling with cc -g and that is in conflict with other rules.

-	Introduce a deoendency for man page subdiretories to allow syning 
	parallel make calls.

-	Try to support Debian with FreeBSD kernel

Libschily:

-	getperm.c now correctly supports umask +w

-	Libschily is now linked against $(LIB_INTL) when a shared libschily
	is created.

Libparanoia (Ported/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):

Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

Libcdrdeflt:

Libdeflt:

Libfind:

Libfile:

Libhfs_iso:

Libsiconv:

Libscg:

-	struct scsi_inquiry is now using a union around the vendor ID strings in
	order to avoid incorrect buffer overflow warnings from GCC-4.x


Libscgcmd:

Libmdigest:

-	Cygwin is broken, when using #pragma weak, so we cannot create
	weak symbols on Cygwin for sha2.c

Rscsi:

Cdrecord:

-	struct scsi_inquiry is now using a union around the vendor ID strings in
	order to avoid incorrect buffer overflow warnings from GCC-4.x


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

Readcd:

-	Cygwin is broken, when using #pragma weak, so we cannot create
	weak symbols on Cygwin for sha2.c


Scgcheck:


Scgskeleton:

Btcflash:

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

-	While introducing the new option -modification-date, we did accidently remove the
	code to set up the creation date in te PVD. Now creation date again contains 
	correct data.

	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.


CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
For more information read README.win32

The files are located on:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha ...

NOTE:	These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some
	minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from
	ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
	Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
