</div>Ok. I'll probably be looking at the code and maybe actively developing<br>
it, so if I get there I can certainly contribute with the cmake files.<br>

</div>Well, I was just curious to know how to contribute and the policies.<br>
Basically, I was looking at the complexity of the blender code and<br>
interdependencies. I think that CMake 2.6 brings a lot of features in<br>
the lines of target dependent properties, functions for scoping, etc.<br>
<br>
But I don't have concrete cases at hand or experience with the build<br>
process, so I don't think this discussion is worth our time for now.<br>
In the future, I might bring this up again if there is in fact a<br>
compelling reason.<br>
<br>
