+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.

+NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a01:
+
+*******
+NOTE: this is _not_ a release that starts a new aplha/beta series of dirtibutions.
+ The only reason is to add certain new CD/DVD features that are important.
+
+ So _please_ do not send any patches except when you like to fix extreme bugs.
+ I am currently mainly working on stable incremental restore featurs for star-1.5-final.
+ Once star-1.5-final is out, cdrtools will start a new developent cycle.
+*******
+
+All:
+
+- Better lint make rules
+
+- Better autoconf rrules for ACLs
+
+- Better support for Linux on IBM-390
+

+TODO:
+ - read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
+ or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer 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.
