Ok :)

CMake ships ctest, which logs svn activities, configuration and build 
output and can submit these to a public dashoard (cdash.org).  This 
is the dashboard for cmake itself
 - http://www.cdash.org/CDash/index.php?project=CMake
This way one can commit changes to the svn-repo and see how they work out 
on other platforms.  Unit testing maybe be suitable as well.

CDash needs a LAMP installation.  Are there LAMP severs available for fltk
development.  Does kitware still support the fltk development?  Maybe they 
are willing to host a cdash dashboard.

I usually use Makefiles on all platforms (Windows: VS VC++-Makefile-Project 
with cygwin), but many others out there using cmake to generate and use
VS/XCode/KDevelop/Eclipse project files.

I agree and will try to do a good job on writing some clean and tight 
build scripts.

PS: One nice thing about cmake is that it can just be build and used via
 - /path/to/cmake/bin/cmake
in place without installing it on the host system.  It doesn't interfere 
with existing cmake installations.  No environment variables have to be set. 
Thus the requirement for a recent version of cmake doesn't introduce a big
burden to developers.
