+Changes in CMake 2.8.0 RC 1
+
+- Qt based GUI cmake-gui is now the default GUI, MFC CMakeSetup is no
+ longer included in CMake. ccmake is still supported.
+- cmake-gui supports multi-state values options.
+- CMake now has cmake --build command that can build any CMake generated
+ project from the command line.
+- Visual Studio 2010 beta support has been added.
+- KDevelop generator now has color output for builds.
+- CTest supports running tests in parallel with a -j N option.
+- A new CTest CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS option can be used to get better
+ dashboard error reports with make based tools.
+- CTest has support for sub-projects and labels which can interact
+ with CDash.
+- CTest now supports Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar.
+- It is now possible to use DESTDIR in CPack for any CMake based projects
+ giving more flexibility on the final path names.
+- The CPack Deb generator now computes the arch instead of hard coding it.
+- Fortran/C mixed language projects made much easier. CMake now
+ automatically can compute the run time libraries for a compiler. In
+ addition, a new FortranCInterface module can determine the correct
+ name mangling needed to mix C and Fortran.
+- Intel compiler support added to OSX, and support for embedded
+ manifests in the windows intel compiler was added.
+- Depend scanning is now much faster with makefiles.
+- Many FindQt4 improvements to stay working with current Qt releases
+- FindMPI has improvements for windows.
+- FindBoost has been updated to work with the most recent boost releases.
+- New External Project Module. The 'ExternalProject_Add' function
+ creates a custom target to drive download, update/patch, configure,
+ build, install and test steps of an external project.
+- xmlrpc dependancy has been removed
+- CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET cache variable has been created to set the
+ deployment OS for a build on OSX.
+- Several new policies were added:
+ CMP0012
+ The if() command can recognize named boolean constants.
+ CMP0013
+ Duplicate binary directories are not allowed.
+ CMP0014
+ Input directories must have CMakeLists.txt.
+ CMP0015
+ The set() CACHE mode and option() command make the cache value
+ visible.
+- Lots of bug fixes.
