Well, I've started some work on CMake for curl because we use it in our company and we've found it beneficial. Since then I also did commit something privately. However the feature set of CMake build is now enough for my company and I've got very little time, so for the time being there's probably only one regular contributor and he mostly does reviews. So yes, sadly, there's a lot to be done and almost no workforce. That being said it seems that [CMake Support Gaps]? is a bit outdated as some of the points were already fixed. Depending on what features you need you may have some troubles. I can imagine that lack of appropriate SONAME may be problematic for you.
