I would ask on the boost-cmake mailing list. You will probably get good replies from notable people from the boost project.

I just did an svn update of a very old boost-cmake folder and ran cmake. Everything built with no errors (Visual studio 2008) (lots of warnings, but no errors).

I wonder.

How well is CMakeification of Boost going? Will standard releases of Boost contain CMakeLists files in my lifetime? and if so, how much of a dream is it to be able to CPack portions of boost (individual libraries + dependencies) up for redistribution within other projects that use only subsets of boost - and to be able to point my CMakeLists to a 'UseBoost' cmake config file?

Thanks - (and apologies if posting this question on the cmake list instead of boot or boost-cmake lists)
