FWIW,
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#How_did_Inkscape_start.3F
says inkscape is a fork of sodipodi. Nevertheless, sodipodi itself seems
quite dead now.

What about switching to dvdrtools [1]? I think this project was started
to solve the frequently recurring arguments about the licensing and the
device adressing scheme cdrtools use.

I don't know how far it got with its efforts, though. Maybe someone can
comment.

What is wrong with that? The blurb [1] seems quite okay (i.e. GPL) to
me.
