You ? This represents a fair amount of work... I bet that if no-one did it it is because it's a hUGe task. Sorry, I am not that good with english, I meant as the CMake team with 'you'. But the 'CMake team' could do that with new releases, like, writing this warning with additions in the newer

Yes, but is not so easy to find. It would be easier to have it in the documentation page (if the page hosts CMake 2.6 or CMake 2.4 documentations, why it doesn't host CMake 2.8.3 documentation? They should be on the wiki too!), easier to find. Renato 2011/12/21 Michael Wild them...@gmail.com:

Hi, I don't know if this will get done, but is it possible for future releases of CMake to change the name on the website for the documentation? For example, if you just looked at the URL: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html and you didn't look at the header (which happens a
