If CMake is not the best solution for the community. maybe use one of
alternatives?

Bakefile [1] from this point of view (unittest++ is small library)
gives the same ability. Bakefile generates fully independent makefiles
for nmake, gnu make, project files borland, microsoft c++, xcode IDEs
etc ...

It offers less configuring ability than CMake (bakefile generates
autoconf compatible makefiles for projects which need multitudes of
host specific configurations) ... but for unittest++ it would be good
fit as it doesn't need almost any config.

Some time ago i even considering submission of autoconf+bakefile files
for unittest++ - as i am using this tool in my projects, nevertheless
i ceased with this idea because of two facts:
1) there is no premade framework to build software that fills all
needs be it scons, cmake or bakefile+autoconf
2) unittest is simple enough to just include eveything in application
source project

[It just follows the same gist as not-adding bloating features like
those which require boost]

Nevertheless, if anyone is interested i can also publish
autoconf+bakefiles for unittest++ that can easily enable
cross-compiling (autoconf feature) and project files for most popular
windows IDEs.

PS. [Sorry, if it looks like advertisment, it's just an accident ;) ... ]
