I have a working prototype: https://github.com/raffienficiaud/boost-cmake

Please give a try, it is very easy to use and it is still working.

Thanks, I had a quick glance from my mobile, but didn't have the time to have a proper look. I'll do sometime this week. One early piece of feedback: I don't see why header-only libraries should be treated significantly different from normal libraries as far as cmake is concerned

[...] I would be happy to discuss about this offline, with a set of interested people. The issues on your github project seem a good place - or do you want to do this via email?

Thanks for your feedback, both work for me!

In particular, the design is not intrusive and it lets library expose their cmake inside boost or independently.

While non-intrusive design is a good thing for an external add-on, when you can't modify the original, I think boost should strive for a solution, where cmake is an integrated & independent part of each individual library.

We can discuss this also. Cheers, Raffi
