The description of Disc Id Calculation at
http://www.freeamp.org/cdindex/how.html describes a process
substantially different from the one implemented in cdindex-1.0.0.
Can anyone clarify what the intended calculation algorithm is?
I would assume that the code is correct, but it is apparently adding
100 8-bytes frame offsets regardless of the number of the tracks on
the disk.

It would also be helpful to have a specification that doesn't depend
on knowledge of the Linux cdrom interface. I'd like to implement an
id generator on Solaris, for example.
