Hi,

Just a quick note to let you Debajyoti Datta will be implementing
Perl-compatible Regular Expression support in CMake starting next
Friday.

I am mentoring him in Season of KDE (kind of Google Summer of Code,
but for KDE). Some details of what he will be doing here here:
http://www.elpauer.org/?p=684

I've just sent him a long e-mail with the technical details and the
source of my half-baked implementation. If you are interested in those
details too, just ask me and I'll forward the e-mail.

We will not be replacing the current regex support in CMake but only
adding PCRE in addition to the current regex support. Wherever you
find now regex support, there will be also PCRE support. I have been
trying to do this for years (!!!) but I never found enough spare time
to complete it.

Debajyoti will introduce himself here soon and the technical issues
will be discussed here, so that other developers can also give him
some insight.
