Though cmake is *very* cross platform. From some fellow students I do know that
it works nicely together with windows and osx since it does basically just
create the project files for the various IDEs (i think currently at least
Makefiles, Visual Studio, XCode, KDevelop and Eclipse are supported, probably
even more. The comments I did hear from other students is that it would be
*very* simple to use. And I think the windows side of cmake is no problem since
there are binaries for it... ;)

But I would recommend to wait until after FOSDEM with starting the switch, at
FOSDEM I will have listen to the talks about scons and about cmake, maybe they
have some valid input. And of course this stuff will not be added to trunk
before 1.4 is branched off (that is 1.4.0 is released). Before we could either
work in a branch, or just check with which one to go.
