<div style=""><div class="im"><div>Hi,<br>I'm one of the developers of LuaDist (Lua module distribution and build system) that uses CMake for building. Its rather simple "ports"-like tool that can install Lua modules and few libraries that we CM'd, including simple version and dependency management. The system can build for OSX/MinGW/Cygwin/VS/Linux and Unix systems. While it was written for Lua modules initially we are already generalizing the system for similar goals as pointed out by Philip.<br>

There are some differences in goals and implementations. It's very likely that we would be able to share work.<br>
<br>We are going to provide zip archives of our packages as well. We're planning on constructing the ZIP files from patches submitted by others (both to source and CMakeLists.txt). Also our goal is just to build popular 3rd party libraries, not Lua modules. Of course where your modules depend on 3rd party libraries there could be a great opportunity for collaboration.<br>
