Andrew, this looks very interesting.
I have been very slowly growing something with similar, though much
more limited,
capabilities for one of projects I use (I'm tired of writing the same
boilerplate :-))
If I have moment, I'd like to check BASIS out in practice.

I quickly skimmed through the docs and I have question about the
Source Code Filesystem Heirarchy.

It is fairly common to have /include folder, so the structure looks like

- <source>/
  + src/
  + include/
  + config/
...

where all public headers live.

Is such layout supported by BASIS?

I see the minimum version of CMake is 2.8.4.
Does it mean BASIS does not support/use the Object Libraries feature?

Best regards,
