[CMake] Question regarding External Project add and VTK

[Jameson Merkow]

Jc,


I'm working on an open source project, but we're no quite ready to release it to the world yet.  We will likely post it on github or another hosting website (publicly) in the coming months and I'll be sure to let you know. We are looking at an early fall release date.
