Actually I realized that not much information is posted on the cmake documentation. I will talk to CMake lead and find some good reference. There are projects out there (like ParaView) that uses superbuild but I will see if I can post a simple example of it.

Said that, what would be our next step? Should we start from scratch? I would like to get it started as soon as possible.
