I would say there are no "gold standard" find modules.
The gold standard is a project config file, like Qt5 has.
From http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/manual/cmake-qt.7.html :
"the Qt 5 libraries are found using "Config-file Packages" shipped with
Qt 5"
Also, search this page for "Config mode":
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/command/find_package.html
Find modules in CMake should be the last resort option, when it is
simply impossible to add a project config mode file to a project.
On the other hand, if the intent behind your question is to make the
existing find modules all follow a given standard..... that's quite an
ambitious goal. Let's see if anybody else names actual names for the
"gold standard."
Just my opinion,
David C.
