The main problem would be solved if Daniel Iliev did inform himself correctly 
what's done in cdrtools and did not post ridiculous claims.

I cannot comment claims that have no relation at all to the reality in cdrtools.
If he continues to post this kind of claims, I need to ignore him. In order to 
discuss licensing of cdrtools, some basic knowledge about facts is needed. It 
does not help to write claims that do not apply to cdrtools as he did.
