Yes, I would like to define and pipeline the responsibilities in 
conjunction with whomever else wants to take them on.  As I said before, 
I'm not interested in doing patches.  Right now my skills and 
programming toolchain are still very, very clumsy, and it would be an 
inordinate amount of work for me.  I am willing to shoulder CMake 
builds, testing suites, production of binaries, and documentation of 
those processes.  Actually I need to create a generic INSTALL readme for 
CMake itself, I just haven't gotten to it yet.  Think of me as the 
build-and-test guy.
