  unit fails to return usable buffer utilization statistics under
  "LONG WRITE IN PROGRESS" condition;
* Wed Oct  1 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- LG GSA-4040B fails to auto-format DVD+RW blanks;
* Mon Sep 15 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.13: support for Panasonic/MATSUSHITA DVD-RAM LF-D310;
* Sat Sep  6 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- RPM build fix-ups, no version change;
* Fri Aug 31 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.12: [major] issue with MODE SENSE/SELECT on SANYO
  derivatives, such as Optorite, is addressed;
- Linux can't open(2) a socket by /dev/fd/N, replace it with dup(2);
- more relaxed command line option parsing and simultaneously a
  zealous check to make sure that no mkisofs options are passed
  along with -[ZM] /dev/cdrom=image;
- report I/O error if input stream was less than 64K;
- -M /dev/cdrom=/dev/zero didn't relocate the lead-out in DVD-RW
  Restricted Overwrite;
* Fri Aug 15 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- single Pioneer DVR-x06 user reported that very small fraction of
  his recordings get terminted with "LONG WRITE IN PROGRESS," even
  though growisofs explicitly reserves for this condition... It
  turned out that at those rare occasions unit reported a lot of free
  buffer space, which growisofs treated as error condition. It's not
  clear if it's firmware deficiency, but growisofs reserves even for
  this apparently rare condition now.
- dvd+rw-format 4.7: when formatting DVD+RW, Pioneer DVR-x06 remained
  unaccessible for over 2 minutes after dvd+rw-format exited and user
  was frustrated to poll the unit himself, now dvd+rw-format does it for
  user;
* Sun Aug  3 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.11: authorship statement in -version output;
- make speed_factor floating point and print "Current Write Speed"
  factor for informational purposes;
- Pioneer DVR-x06 exhibited degraded performance when recording DVD+;
- Pioneer DVR-x06 failed to complete DVD+ recording gracefully;
- alter set-root-uid behaviour under Linux from "PAM-junky" to more
  conservative one;
- dvd+rw-format 4.6: -force to ignore error from READ DISC INFORMATION;
- -force was failing under FreeBSD with 'unable to unmount';
- undocumented -gui flag to ease progress indicator parsing for
  GUI front-ends;
* Fri Jul 14 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- dvd+rw-format 4.5: increase timeout for OPC, NEC multi-format
  derivatives might require more time to fulfill the OPC procedure;
- growisofs 5.10: increase timeout for OPC, NEC multi-format
  derivatives might require more time to fulfill the OPC procedure;
- extended syntax for -use-the-force-luke option, it's now possible
  to engage DVD-R[W] dummy mode by -use-the-force-luke=[tty,]dummy
  for example, where "tty" substitutes for the original non-extended
  option meaning, see the source for more easter eggs;
- FreeBSD: compile-time option to pass -M /dev/fd/0 to mkisofs to
  make life easier for those who mount devfs, but not fdescfs;
- eliminate potential race conditions;
- avoid end-less loop if no media was in upon tray load;
- interpret value of MKISOFS environment variable as absolute path
  to mkisofs binary;
- to facilitate for GUI front-ends return different exit codes, most
  notably exit value of 128|errno denotes a fatal error upon program
  startup [messages worth popping up in a separate modal dialog
  perhaps?], errno - fatal error during recording and 1 - warnings
  at exit;
- to facilitate for GUI front-ends auto-format blank DVD+RW media;
- Linux: fix for failure to copy volume descriptors when DVD-RW
  Restricted Overwrite procedure is applied to patched kernel;
- FreeBSD: growisofs didn't close tray upon startup nor did the rest
  of the tools work with open tray;
- bark at -o option and terminate execution, the "problem" was that
  users seem to misspell -overburn once in a while, in which case it
  was passed down to mkisofs and an iso-image was dumped to current
  working directory instead of media;
- generalize -M /dev/cdrom=file.iso option, but if file.iso is not
  /dev/zero, insist on sane -C argument to be passed prior -M and
  double-verify the track starting address;
* Tue Jun 20 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.9: some [SONY] firmwares make it impossible to tell
  apart minimally and fully blanked media, so we need a way to engage
  DAO manually [in DVD-RW]... let's treat multiple -dvd-compat options
  as "cry" for DAO;
- refuse to finalize even DVD-R media with -M flag (advise to fill
  it up with -M /dev/cdrom=/dev/zero too), apparently DVD-units
  [or is it just SONY?] also "misplace" legacy lead-out in the same
  manner as DVD+units;
- oops! DAO hung at >4MB buffer because of sign overflow;
- couple of human-readable error messages in poor_mans_pwrite64;
- work around Plextor firmware deficiency which [also] manifests as
  end-less loop upon startup;
* Wed Jun 14 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.8: elder Ricoh firmwares seem to report events
  differently, which triggered growisofs and dvd+rw-format to
  end-less loop at startup [event handling was introduced in 5.6
  for debugging purposes];
- int ioctl_fd is transformed to void *ioctl_handle to facilitate
  port to FreeBSD;
- FreeBSD support contributed by Matthew Dillon;
- volume descriptors from second session were discarded in
  Restricted Overwrite since 5.6;
* Sun Jun  8 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.7: Solaris 2.x USB workaround;
- 15 min timeout for FLUSH CACHE in DVD-RW DAO;
- revalidate recording speed;
- load media upon start-up (Linux used to auto-close tray upon open,
  but not the others, which is why this functionality is added so
  late);
- dvd+rw-mediainfo: DVD-R[W] MediaID should be printed now;
* Sat May 31 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- Solaris support is merged;
* Mon May 26 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.6: unconditional exit in set-root-uid assistant, mostly
  for aesthetic reasons;
- support for DVD-RW DAO recordings (whenever Pioneer-ish Quick
  Format is not an option, DAO should fill in for it, as it's the
  only recording strategy applicable after *minimal* blanking
  procedure);
- support for SG_IO pass-through interface, or in other words
  support for Linux 2>=5;
- 'growisofs -M /dev/cdrom=/dev/zero', this is basically a counter-
  intuitive kludge assigned to fill up multi-session write-once
  media for better compatibility with DVD-ROM/-Video units, to keep
  it mountable [in the burner unit] volume descriptors from previous
  session are copied to the new session;
- disable -dvd-compat with -M option and DVD+R, advice to fill up
  the media as above instead;
- postpone Write Page setup all the way till after dry_run check;
- if recording to write-once media is terminated by external event,
  leave the session opened, so that the recording can be resumed
  (though no promises about final results are made, it's just that
  leaving it open makes more sense than to close the session);
- ask unit to perform OPC if READ DISC INFORMATION doesn't return
  any OPC descriptors;
- get rid of redundant Quick Grow in Restricted Overwrite;
- dvd+rw-formwat 4.4: support for -force=full in DVD-RW context;
- ask unit to perform OPC if READ DISC INFORMATION doesn't return
  any OPC descriptors;
- new dvd+rw-mediainfo utility for debugging purposes;
* Thu May 1 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.5: fix for ENOENT at unmount, I should have called myself
  with execlp, not execl;
- security: chdir to / in set-root-uid assistant;
- use /proc/mounts instead of MOUNTED (a.k.a. /etc/mtab) in Linux
  umount code;
- changed to 'all' target in Makefile to keep NetBSD people happy;
* Sun Apr 20 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.4: setup_fds is introduced to assist ports to another
  platforms;
- set-root-uid assistant code directly at entry point (see main());
- OpenBSD/NetBSD port added;
* Thu Mar 27 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.4: split first write to avoid "empty DMA table?" in
  kernel log;
- dvd+rw-format 4.3: natural command-line restrictions;
* Thu Mar 20 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.3: refuse to burn if session starts close to or beyond
  the 4GB limit (due to limitation of Linux isofs implementation).
- media reload is moved to growisofs from dvd+rw-format.
- dry_run check is postponed all the way till the first write.
* Sat Mar 15 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.3/dvd+rw-format 4.2: support for DVD-RW Quick Format,
  upon release tested with Pioneer DVR-x05.
- bug in DVD+RW overburn protection code fixed.
* Thu Feb 27 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.2: brown-bag bug in "LONG WRITE IN PROGRESS" handling
  code fixed.
* Mon Feb 1 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- code to protect against overburns.
- progress indicator to display recording velocity.
- re-make it work under Linux 2.2 kernel.
* Tue Jan 14 2003 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.1: support for DVD-R[W] writing speed control.
- dvd+rw-booktype 4: see the source.
* Tue Nov 26 2002 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- growisofs 5.0: support for DVD-R[W].
- dvd+rw-format 4.0: support for DVD-RW.
- growisofs 4.2: workaround for broken DVD+R firmwares (didn't make
  public by itself).
* Thu Nov 4 2002 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- Minor growisofs update. Uninitialized errno at exit when
  -Z /dev/scd0=image.iso is used.
* Thu Nov 3 2002 Andy Polyakov <[e-mail]>
- Initial packaging. Package version is derived from growisofs,
  dvd+rw-format and dvd+rw-booktype version. 4.0.3.0.3 means
  growisofs 4.0, dvd+rw-format 3.0 dvd+rw-booktype 3.
