I will try to ask author of the cdrtools for some explict date of the new release. Marc - I still think there is a need to add info about "-iso-level 3" and the "-udf -iso-level 3" switch of mkisofs to the Handbook, as this option allows burning files with per-file-size limit >4GB and use level 3 of the ISO-9660. This option must be applied to mkisofs and dvd+rw-tools, neverthless of the mkisofs release, so giving this hint explictly in a Handbook will help commandline users. The other thing is that it works only in releases older than 2.01.01aXXX and should work with nearest stable release. Please follow discussion on the usenet - there are all of the details necessary to acknowlege my point of view. Best regards, Tomek Cedro -- CeDeROM, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
