k3b replaces gnomebaker?



Hi,

seeing this line at the snapshot changelog shocked me:


[xap] Added k3b-1.0.3-i486-50.1.tgz (replaces gnomebaker)

I guess this is because of gnomebaker is not supporting cdrkit but
that's no reason to go for KDE bloated stuff!

Hi Sebastian,

I think there was quite a good reason, is k3b 
 Simply the best application for burning on cd 
 Linux and better maintained, whether you like it or not. ;)

If only k3b supports cdrkit I would say we eighter forget about cdrkit
and stick cdrtools and gnomebaker (or any other gtk-based app) or if you
really want to replace cdrtools with cdrkit making gnomebaker and other
frontends unusable than provide no gui burning tool but some scripts for
the console or maybe bashburn.

The reason why one will choose ZW is because it is tiny, fast and runs
on older Hardware as well and (like in my case) because it is 100% KDE
and qt free!

By implementing k3b you will break with the qt free tradition in ZW and
you add unneccesary bloat to the ISO! JP, why is that? Are you on drugs? ;)

Best regards,
