Launching *yet another* build system seems to be symptomatic of Not Invented Here syndrome. I'll be the first to admit that CMake can be a little ugly in places, but it does the job it's meant to do and it's getting better with every release. It's adoption among open source projects is fairly large and growing which gives it the backing of a very large community.
