Hi everyone,

As you may recall from December, we issued an RFP for improving our
build process:
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-11114

We got a couple of great proposals, and selected Kitware (makers of
CMake) for doing that work.

Work has commenced now.  Kitware convinced us that an important first
step is to move develop.py out of the way, and just have developers
invoke CMake in order to start a build.

The really astute among you may have already noticed this work here:
http://svn.secondlife.com/trac/linden/browser/projects/2009/easybuild

We'll have more details later about how that work is going by next week,
but I've been meaning to get this note out for a while.

Rob
