There are almost a zillion CD/DVD burners for *nix out there and almost none of them are actively developed. If the developers who created those -mostly half functional- applications worked together on one killer burner, the chances of it becoming unmaintained are way smaller and the quality of the applications would also be of a higher standard... The wait is for someone to fork my -until recently- favorite burner: Graveman (maybe even rename it to Xfburn-ng ('ng' as in 'new generation') or something) -H- PS: Top posting makes this thread really hard to read...

I agree about the unnecessary abundance of burning apps. KDE devs seem to focus on supporting and improving K3B, thus making it the best Linux burning app by most people's standards. Unfortunately there's really nothing like that for GTK/GNOME. Brasero comes closest, I guess. It's the only one still being maintained, as I said before. Unfortunately it also comes with all of those GNOME deps... A fork of Graveman is definitely needed, it seems.
