All,

Scott Long and myself are happy to present a first alpha version of UDF
support under FreeBSD.

This software falls under the BSD License, meaning it is royalty-free,
can be redistributed in both open and closed source environments in both
source and binary form and is basically free. :)
Only conditions are:

1. Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright
   notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer.
2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above
   copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in
   the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

It currently supports 1.5 only and might lock up your system due to its
alphaware state.

Mounting, unmounting should work without problems.  Contents should be
able to be listed, depending on how the media was created though.
Sparing tables are still to be done, for example.

This was tested with CD-RW's created by and written to with:

InCD 2.0 from Ahead Software AG.
DirectCD from Roxio Inc.

Also, commercial movie DVD-ROMs worked in terms of mounting and seeing
directory contents.

I will remind again: this is an alpha version, still in a lot of
development.  It is merely provided as a service to the community out
there.

Feedback appreciated.

Teaching should be such that what is offered is perceived as a valuable
gift and not as a hard duty...
