I'm saying they are probably much more busy than I and don't have time 
to sort through every single patch that comes in, especially from CMake 
"noobs" like me.  I take no offense at that.  It's life.

There is even an approved patch in the bug tracker for AUI support in 
wxWidgets from January 19 of this year that hasn't been integrated into 
CMake.  I asked about it recently, but no response was given.

In the end, Kitware needs to do what is best financially for Kitware.  
If my patches or other people's patches (approved or otherwise) do not 
benefit Kitware, I would fully expect there to be little interest.

I just stated the opinion above based solely on whether my efforts on a 
C# patch would benefit anyone else by integration into the master build 
of CMake or whether the C# patch would sit in a private forked build of 
CMake.

What is Kitware's interest in full Visual Studio C# support in CMake?

My apologies for the misunderstanding.
