Now, it's my understanding that we still don't support use of CMake

of adding support for CMake in our build system? Would that be too
much effort and not worth it, or would it be worthwhile to add
support for it, but so far it has not been anybody's priority, or ... ?
Please let me know what your opinions are.
so as far as i remember, the reason why CMake isn't required currently
is mainly that nobody so far wanted to add it as yet another build
dependency that people have to install - there isn't anything
inherently wrong with the idea and it could be called from makefiles
just like other external build systems.
That's good to know. Let me think about this for a bit. The truth is
that I'm not 100% sure whether I can commit to working on adding CMake
executable as an additional build requirement myself. I can imagine
even adding an additional executable to our current buildsystem can be
very complex and tedious.
Hmm...
