On a lark, I visited the xcdroast.org website and it's apparently 
changed considerably from the old COL 2.4 days. You may still want to 
try it. Looking at the screenies, it still has that clunky interface 
(although prettied up by GTK2) which led me on the search for a 
friendlier app, but it apparently is supposed to do DVD, multi-session 
and Mixed-Mode CDs.

FWIW, now that Arson is getting some developer activity again, I like it 
better than k3b, although I use both. http://arson.sf.net
