Since cmake likely won't be the main configure/build system for the core developers, it is going to be a challenge to keep the cmake build system up-to-date as changes are made in the autotools-based build system. (I speak from experience: we had a cmake build system in Open MPI for a while for Windows support that was constructed / maintained along side the autotools configure/build system, and it was continually out of date :-( ) -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
