Re: C++ wrappers for libyaml, plus CMake port.

Hi Andre.

I know there are many libyaml wrappers, and I see none of them in the
reference distro, so posting your work as a separate open source project
would be the way to go.  Be sure to post a link here if you do!

Autotools works, and presumable so do the VC projects, so I think it would
be hard to justify replacing them with CMake.  Package builders for various
linux distros depend on the libyaml build system working the way it does,
so changing it would have a big ripple effect and create a lot of work for
them.  But by all means post it as a project so it is an option for those
who want it.

Regards,
Dan.
