= Boost.CMake =

Boost.Cmake is an alternative build system for Boost based on [http://www.cmake.org CMake], a cross-platform, open-source make system.  This system is designed to build Boost as it appears in its official monolithic SVN repository. 

A ''modularized'' version of Boost, also using CMake—where each library and component lives in its own Git repository—is being developed separately by the [http://ryppl.org Ryppl] project.
