I know this has been discussed before... and the reasons why not have been
told (I do need to search for them again... I know), but I am personally
moving my personal projects from qmake to cmake. I am using only cmake to
build Qt applications, and I personally think everyone should.

It would be great if from now you start pushing towards making cmake the
official build system for Qt.

Again - you guys already spoken against it and I do need to review those
reasons, but this is me speaking - one of the people actually using this
beautiful system.
