I haven't made as much progress as I have wanted.  I have submitted
work upstream, however, and both zlib & libpng now have CMakeLists.txt
in their trunks (libpng has made a release with it, zlib has not).

I did some integration work a while back with CMakePorts and OSG but I
didn't finish everything I had wanted so I didn't submit the work to
osg-submissions.  I hope to get back to this work at some point.

The add external project stuff for CMake sounds pretty cool.  I
haven't looked at it much.
