+- 24th October 2007 version 0.4.0 is the foundation of new library libisoburn
+  and an upcomming integrated application for manipulating and writing
+  ISO 9660 + Rock Ridge images. cdrskin-0.4.0 got capabilities like growisofs
+  by these enhancements: growing of overwriteable media and disk files.

+
+- 26th Januar 2008 version 0.4.2 rectifies the version numbering so that we
+  reliably release libburn.so.4 as should have been done since libburn-0.3.2.
+  cdrskin now is by default linked dynamically and does a runtime check
+  to ensure not to be started with a libburn which is older than itself.
+
+- 3rd Feb 2008 libisofs-0.2.x (.so.5) has been deprecated.
+
+- 14th Feb 2008 libisofs-0.6.2 permanently replaces the old libisofs-0.2.x. 
+  It is the first release of new libisofs.so.6 which will guarantee future
+  API/ABI compatibility for its whole feature set.
+
+- 15th Feb 2008 libisoburn-0.1.0 (.so.1) coordinates libisofs and libburn for
+  the purpose of ISO image reading and writing. It emulates multi-session on
+  overwriteable media. Application xorriso makes use of all three libraries.
+
+- 8th Apr 2008 libburn-0.4.4 has proven to be capable of burning to DVD+R/DL
+  and read performance on disk file pseudo-drives has been improved.
+
+- 27th Apr 2008 libisofs-0.6.4 can now read data file content from images
+  and can map pieces of disk files onto image files. Image directory iteration
+  has been enhanced. Input data streams and extended information have been
+  exposed in the API to allow future development.
+
+- 29th Apr 2008 libisoburn-0.1.4 was made more efficient with reading of
+  image tree nodes. It now depends on libisofs-0.6.4 and libburn-0.4.4.
+  xorriso makes use of new libisofs features by performing incremental
+  updates of directory trees and by cutting oversized data files into
+  pieces. A primitive single session emulation of cdrcord and mkisofs is
+  provided.
+
+- 10th May 2008 libburn-0.4.6 supports formatting and writing of BD-RE,
+  full nominal speed for DVD-RAM and BD-RE. cdrskin has a unified blank
+  type with automatic media state recognition.
+
+- 17th May 2008 an old bug with DVD-RAM and now with BD-RE is fixed by
+  libburn-0.4.8 to allow libisoburn emulation of multisession on those media.

 dnl

+dnl    Older applications are able to use younger libraries over
+dnl    quite a long range of such steps. Some day, nevertheless,
+dnl    compatibility might get terminated, after due notice.
+dnl
+dnl SONAME (libburn.so.4)
+dnl    is a small positive integer which marks a family of compatible
+dnl    evolution steps. Libraries with a particular SONAME allow a binary
+dnl    with the same SONAME to start up. Any further compatibility check is to
+dnl    be done by own runtime means. Especially  *_version() calls in the API
+dnl    which return BURN_MAJOR_VERSION, BURN_MINOR_VERSION, BURN_MICRO_VERSION.
+dnl    See below.
+dnl
+dnl CURRENT, AGE, REVISION
+dnl    are three integers used by libtool. CURRENT is positive, the others
+dnl    non-negative. The use at runtime is not known yet. But libtool computes
+dnl    at build time  SONAME = CURRENT - AGE.
+dnl    So this is a superspace of the SONAME version space. To avoid
+dnl    ill SONAME, the value of  CURRENT must be larger than AGE.
+dnl    See also http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual.html#Interfaces
+dnl
+dnl The name of the dynamic library will be libburn.so.$SONAME.$AGE.$REV .
+dnl In the terminology of this file:
+dnl    CURRENT = LT_CURRENT
+dnl    AGE     = LT_AGE
+dnl    REVISION= LT_REVISION
+dnl
+dnl Beginning with libburn-0.4.1 a rectified counting was introduced as
+dnl    CURRENT=10, REVISION=1, AGE=6
+dnl This rectification declared that version to be binary compatible up
+dnl from libburn-0.3.4.
+dnl Real compatibility was given since libburn-0.3.2.
+dnl Beware of libburn-0.2.6 which had SONAME=6 and is not binary compatible.
+dnl Applications for libburn-0.2 to libburn-0.3.1 need recompilation but no
+dnl source code changes.
+dnl
+dnl Neatly versioned stable releases meanwhile:
+dnl    0.4.2 = libburn.so.4.7.0
+dnl    0.4.4 = libburn.so.4.9.0
+dnl    0.4.6 = libburn.so.4.11.0
+dnl    0.4.8 = libburn.so.4.13.0
+dnl
+dnl So LT_CURRENT, LT_REVISION and LT_AGE get set directly here.
+dnl SONAME of the emerging library is  LT_CURRENT - LT_AGE.
+dnl The linker will do no finer checks. Especially no age range check for
+dnl the application binary. If SONAME matches, then the couple starts.
+dnl 
+dnl Therefore at run time info is provided by libburn function burn_version().
+dnl It returns the major, minor and micro revision of the library.
+dnl Before using any API feature, a program should check for age.
+dnl
+dnl The variables BURN_*_VERSION are mere copies for informing libtool.
+dnl The true values which get issued and should be compared are macros

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+DVD-RAM and BD-RE formatting :
+
+Although DVD-RAM usually are sold formatted, there may still arise the wish
+to adjust formatting.
+BD-RE are sold unformatted and need to be formatted prior to usage.
+
+Two format types are relevant for DVD-RAM : 00h and 01h.
+00h offers the default size format and usually a maximum payload size format.
+Even with that maximum size payload there is hardware defect management.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5.4.2.1.2)
+01h allows to convert payload capacity into spare blocks for defect
+managment. There is no way to increase payload capacity by format 01h.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5.4.2.2.1)
+
+With BD-RE there are three format types : 00h, 30h and 31h.
+00h offers the default size format.
+30h offers several sizes with defect management. Usually there are three
+size to choose: #1: default size, #2: maximum spare area, #3: minimal spare.
+31h offers a single size and disables defect management. This has the side
+effect to speed up writing to nominal speed.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5.4.2.15, 6.24.3.3, Table 472)
+
+Only format sizes from the list of format descriptors are permissible
+for DVD-RAM. The format list can be obtained by 23h READ FORMAT CAPACITIES.
+It also includes a description of the current formatting state.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.24, 6.24.3.2, 6.24.3.3)
+
+Formatting is done by command 04h FORMAT UNIT. Its data payload consists
+of a Format List Header and a Format Descriptor. It is advisable to set
+the Immed bit and the FOV bit in header byte number 1. The descriptor should
+be a copy of a descriptor from 23h READ FORMAT CAPACITIES.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5, 6.5.3.2, 6.5.3.3)
+With nearly all formats Sub-type should be set to 0. But with BD-RE formats
+30h and 31h the Sub-type selects the certification mode.
+Usable with 30h seem 10b Full Certification and 11b Quick Certification.
+Usable with 31h seem also 00b Quick Reformat and 01b No Certification.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5.4.2.15.1)
+
+Other format types have their certification intensity controlled by
+a pair of bits: CmpList and DCRT.
+CmpList resides in CDB byte 1 as bit 3. DCRT resides in the payload byte 1
+as bit 5. Both together should request a quick size change without lengthy
+certification but maintaining the list of known defects.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5, table 249, 6.5.3.2)
+With DVD-RAM on my PHILIPS SPD3300L drive they prevent any format size
+change though. The TSSTcorp SH-S203B works properly.
+With BD-RE format 00h, the default is specified to be Quick Reformat,
+and with 00h in general certification can only be disabled not enabled.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.5.4.2.1.7)
+
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+DVD-RAM and BD-RE tuning :
+
+A special aspect of DVD-RAM and BD-RE is their low speed with write operations,
+which usually is only half than the nominal speed of media and drive.
+This is blamed to the automatic checkreading which happens ifor managing
+eventual defects. 
+
+Defect management of BD-RE can be disabled by format type 31h. See above.
+There is no drive known yet which would apply command 2Ah WRITE10 to DVD-RAM
+with full speed.
+
+The only known way to get full speed from DVD-RAM or BD-RE with enabled defect
+management is the use of AAh WRITE12 with Streaming Bit set to 1.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 6.45)
+With some DVD-RAM drives this fails if a write buffer is not full 32 kB.
+With the tested BD-RE ione has to write write full 64 kB buffers.
+
+Although it seems not optimal, this is specified not only to disable the
+cumbersome checkread but also to ignore known defects and to write data
+to these defective addresses.
+(mmc5r03c.pdf 4.8.5)
+So the speed-up is only advisable as long as the media are free of
+incorrectable errors.
+
+Caveat:
+MMC-5 does not guarantee AAh WRITE12 to work on DVD-RAM or BD-RE at all.
+None of the features of profiles 0012h and 0043 promises the existence of
+AAh WRITE12.
+Nevertheless it worked on all tested drives is proper alignment was observed.
