To be a little more specific, the schedule as currently outlined by discussion on the dev@ mailing list is:
0.22: the autotools build will echo a message indicating that it is being deprecated in future 0.24: the autotools build will fail by default and emit a message indicating why, but it will still be possible to enable it by setting an option. 0.26: no autotools build You can report any issues migrating *from* the autotools build to the cmake to either the dev@ or users@ lists.
