the link above contains one single true claim:
In the past, we, the Debian maintainers of cdrtools, had a good and
mutually cooperative relationship with Jörg Schilling. He even
commented on Debian bug reports, which is one of the best things an
upstream maintainer can do. Naturally, there were occasionally
disagreements, but this is normal.
The rest contains a lot of accusations but not a single legal proof.
Please read the relvent information I did provide already, see e.g.:
