Re: Coaster-lib

[Todd Goyen <wettoad knighthoodofbuh org>]

I feel I should add somethign here since I have talked to sean a bit.  I am writing a program called coaster architect which is a clone of sonic foundary's CD Architect. The url is http://www.dinosaurmoonpark.com/coasterarchitect
Anyway I am going to be working on this library with him and I think he is right in that yes it should ultimately support everything, like bootable CD's on any platform, but for the time being the focus should be a simple api that allows basic burning and detection.

I am also with the idea that the user doesn't need to know anything about the burner except to choose from the burners on the system.

oh well just my two cents.
