OK.  Wanted to make sure I used the correct type to test.

Found a DVD-RW placed in my drive and brought up k3b.  It showed the drive to contain an "Appendable Data DVD-RW".  I then selected "Burn ISO".  I didn't get any formatting dialog.  It wrote the ISO just fine.

I used Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-23_Beta.iso and I only have an F22 system with a DVD drive.

k3b-2.0.3-3.fc22

I don't have a fresh, unused DVD-RW to try.
