</div>I don't really like the "propaganda" idea :-)<br>
<br>
Particularly for Open Source projects.<br>

Open Source is about choice and openess.<br>

I don't want to contribute to a voluntary CMake conversion.<br>
However I'll be glad (as usual) to help anyone requesting for help with CMake.</blockquote><div><br>I assure you, should they not submit to mandatory CMake conversion of their trunks, it will be death by a thousand patches! =)<br>
<br>Just kidding obviously. Like I said, I think it's a tertiary goal. =) We'll probably send some friendly emails telling them what we did in the hopes that someone is interested in merging the work or at least using it as a baseline for something better. I think every new release of MSVC pretty much makes CMake adoption more and more likely. Their conversion to the dark side is nearly complete. muahahaha. =)<br>
