Before making the cmake build the standard approach, I think it's important to make sure that it can do the things autoconf can do, specifically: detection of features vs OS, so that it will build on a new OS which can work based on feature tests cross compiling (using standard interfaces, so that packaging systems that want to cross compile don't have to special case codec2) OBJDIR builds (the equivalent of running configure from a directory other than the sources, resulting in not writing to the source directory at all) make dist make distcheck (which involves an OBJDIR build on the unpacked distribution tarball) I'm not clear on cmake details, but I have the impression that not all the above is supported.
