Damien:

I agree with you. If we set-up, say, CMake, it would be analogous to the 
gmake set-up on  Unix.
With enough CMake switches, users could easily configure their favorite build 
flavor.

I personally think that putting a standard cross platform system in place 
would be more useful. Whenever there is duplication there is always the risk 
that things will go out of sync!



However if this is a bit too out of scope then merely maintaining a VS 
project would suffice. I would prefer to do the former and am willing to give 
my time to do so.
