I have a friend who is a system engineer working on installing a recent
fedora version on R-Pi2 and desisted. Seneca College made the proof of
concept and moved on, so Pidora is outdated. 

This is the opportunity for a nice article on how to install fedora 23
on R-Pi2? Not everybody is well versed in the tiny details to make this
works.

... and then another article on how to run multiwrite in R-Pi-2
(hopping that gnome-multi-writer does not need the full gnome desktop
and works nice in a XFCE setup)

Raspberry-pi aside, having multiwriter at a event may be really nice.

I had great attention using turbojet as a multi DVD writer tool, but it
is not in fedora repos.
