# Welcome to libburnia project ### NEWS * **Mon Nov 25 2019** Bug fix release 1.5.2.pl01 of [libburn](http://files.libburnia-project.org/releases/libburn-1.5.2.pl01.tar.gz) is ready on [release page](Releases). cdrskin did not properly burn multiple tracks. Track 1 was slow and burning stalled before track 2. Regression introduced by 1.5.0. * **Sat Oct 27 2019** Release 1.5.2 is ready on [release page](Releases). The libraries are now ready for building out-of-source. [libisofs](http://files.libburnia-project.org/releases/libisofs-1.5.2.tar.gz) got minor API extensions. [libburn](http://files.libburnia-project.org/releases/libburn-1.5.2.pl01.tar.gz) got a bug fixed which spoiled burn runs on some MATSHITA laptop drives. It is now able to list all features which the drive announces. [xorriso and libisoburn](http://files.libburnia-project.org/releases/libisoburn-1.5.2.tar.gz) xorriso can now set GPT type GUIDs with appended partitions and the ISO partition. All three libraries got some rarely triggered bugs fixed. * **Thu Aug 1 2019** we celebrate 13 years of libburnia project. * **Fri Oct 28 2016** We moved from Trac/svn/bzr to GitLab/git. * **Sun Mar 20 2016** The wiki article [about problems with concurrent burns](Concurrentlinuxsr) describes two workarounds for the poor throughput which can be observed on Linux if libburn operates more than one drive at a time. ### ABOUT libburnia is a project for [reading](Reading), [mastering](Mastering) and [writing](Writing) optical discs. Currently it is comprised of libraries named [libisofs](Libisofs), [libburn](Libburn), [libisoburn](Libisoburn), a cdrecord emulator named [cdrskin](Cdrskin), and an integrated multi-session tool named [xorriso](Xorriso). The software runs on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, NetBSD, OpenBSD. It is base of the [GNU xorriso](http://www.gnu.org/software/xorriso/xorriso_eng.html) package. ### LICENCE The source code for the libburnia project is distributed under the terms of the [GNU General Public License version 2 or later (GPLv2+)](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html).
