[sldev] Heads up - we're working on CMake

[alissa_sabre at yahoo.co.jp]

It is unfortunate to see that this discussion ends up with a flamewar
between Lindens and open source developers.

I have no objection to this point.

I have no objection to this point either.

What I was suggesting in my previous mail is simply disclose whatever
you have.  I don't expect we get a working copy.  I guess you have
started with the cmake for the LL internal source tree and it doesn't
work with the open source version of the source tree.  That's totally
fine for me, as I wrote:

Honestly, I don't fully understand your points against this question.
However, based on the messages sent to the sldev list regarding this
issue, I have a feeling that if you distributed you current copies of
cmakelists.txt as-is at the first place, the sldev list was filled
with just another set of flamers.  I have a feeling that Lindens are
not active making their intermediate work open because they fear open
source developers complains.  (Of course I'm wrong on this point.)

So, you may be right.  Please keep developing your cmake adaptation
project by yourself, until it becomes perfect.

It is sorrow to see we (Lindens and open soruce developers) can't
collaborate even on a small project like this.  I'm not exactly sure
what's wrong.
