In source.url, use "git://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITKLuaRock<http://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITKLuaRock>" instead of "https://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITKLuaRock.git";.

The rockspec uses a CMake build, so it will only build on Linux or > OS X. Does this build a self-contained module that links all necessary libraries statically? If it doesn't, it would be more advisable to have the rockspec build only the Lua module and specify any other dependencies of the library as external_dependencies. Yes, the SimpleITK module I build is completely self contained. When it builds SimpleITK it also builds the ITK libraries statically. Everything gets linked into SimpleITK.so, which does not need anything else.
