Hi,<br><br>I would prefer do the move to CMake 2.8.2 sooner than later. Preferably ahead of the alpha release of SlicerQt.<br><br>Features I would like to benefit from are:<br> - MD5 sum for archived download as External Project, particularly useful to confirm the integrity of the archive. <br>
- better support for VS2010 / Windows7<br> - a git support tested by cmake dashboard - Not the one I hacked/added to it ... <br> - ExternalProject is major feature - I would prefer use the official module - it will make resolution of potential problem easier.<br>
<br>See <a href="http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/CMakeChangeLog-2.8.2">http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/CMakeChangeLog-2.8.2</a><br><br>Note that only<b> Slicer / Superbuild</b> would be impacted<br><br>Thks<br>Jc<br><br>

Can we keep compatibility with the older cmake by making the use of<br>
that module conditional?<br>
<br>
I am against everyone having to update their CMake to build Slicer, if<br>
no meaningful functionality is provided.<br>
