[cmake-developers] CMake version to build CMake

[Stephen Kelly]

Hi,

Currently CMake requires a minimum of CMake 2.8.4 to build.

I was reviewing the cmake-server work from Tobias starting with the libuv 
integration, and I think CMake might benefit from using ALIAS targets in its 
own build. ALIAS targets were introduced in CMake 2.8.12 (released August 
2013).

What do you think of updating the requirement to that or higher?

Thanks,

Steve.
