The easy way to sort that problem is let it solve by itself: if there are 5 FindBoost.cmake in CMakeForge, I'd probably go for the most-downloaded one (or the most-used one, if cmake-popularity-contest is implemented).

Talking about Boost, now that Boost is moving to CMake, has anyone asked them to "bless" FindBoost.cmake? (AFAIK they don't provide one yet)

Hi,

Just to be clear, boost isn't 'officially moving' to CMake:

[from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Please note that we are not proposing to replace the existing bjam- based build system in Boost. The CMake-based build system will be developed alongside the existing build system. We will not speculate regarding any future Boost policy decisions regarding build systems.

Anyhow the cmakeable boost is under active development and very usable
at this point.   The current boost release (1.35.0) is available in cmakeable 
form.
Details:

  http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/CMake

we'd be glad to see boost users/cmakers on the boost-cmake list:

 http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-cmake

and I'm sure a FindBoost.cmake or the like will be forthcoming,
once it is clear exactly what that should look like.  There is stuff
to think about there involving modularizing the boost libraries,
installers, etc...   don't recall all the details at the moment.
