Thanks for letting us know.  I'd meant to touch base with you at some 
time, and now is as good a time as any.  It's clear you know or at least 
remember Matt Dillon, as well.

I think the package name as written resulted in a matching description.  :-)

But yes, of course you're right that your software supports more than 
just DVD+RW.  I've updated the COMMENT field and the pkg-desc file based 
on your feedback and the updated manpage.  The new version is at 
http://www.pkix.net/~chuck/dvd+rw-tools, with diffs as follows:

Thanks for the work you've put in, Andy.  *ahem*  I won't say anything 
about five-digit package version numbers, either, even though most 
people seem to be happy enough using only two or three.  :-)
