I agree that cmake is nice, but in this case we should wait a bit.
The reason is that rms plugin and web gui are broken in 1.3.7 and I 
suggest fixing those and rerelease as 1.3.8 as soon as possible.
Therefore, I would like to wait with merging cmake support until after 
1.3.8 is released.


For those interested, here's a summery of the problems:

rms plugin in 1.3.7 has a bug making the LIST command always returns an 
empty list. This makes the web gui pretty useless since it will never 
display any users.

However, even after fixing the rms plugin (r6843), I cannot get the web 
gui to work. I've done some fixes (r6852) to remove syntax faults in the 
code, but I still only get either an empty list (Opera and Konquerer) or 
login page never disappears (Firefox).
I'm not very good with java scripts so if anyone else can help with 
this, please do. Otherwise I will continue trying to troubleshoot when I 
get the time.
