If that "official"build means that re2c abandons autotools and ceases to be an autotools project then what you perceive as being a convenience for yourself constitutes a serious inconvenience for others such as myself. Therefore, with this in mind, I don't have any interest in seeing re2c migrate to cmake, and therefore I'm opposed to it.
