-All hail cmake, some kind of silver bullet. The TCL/TK variant of ISST
-is now part of BRL-CAD proper. I could go for some tacos.
+This release marks the introduction into BRL-CAD of a new build system
+based on CMake, a cross platform tool that is capable of generating
+native build logic for OSX, Windows and various Unix/Linux systems.
+Cliff Yapp has been working on this conversion for a number of months
+in order to simplify the task of building BRL-CAD on multiple
+platforms. Previously, there were two build sytems in BRL-CAD -
+one based on GNU Autotools, used for OSX and Unix/Linux platforms, and
+the other based on Microsoft Visual Studio. CMake will allow one
+set of build rules to handle all supported platforms, eliminating the
+need to manually update the Windows build logic at release time.
