Maybe people should get serious about nightly build and test suites,

the few developers working on things.  Really, seriously, the answers to 
greater Chicken robustness lie in the energy of the community, not in 
Felix.  Someone show me that they care enough to implement industrial 
strength testing.  I will certainly facilitate any build requirements, 
especially Kitware's offers regarding the Dart Dashboard, but I will not 
take the lead.
    

Also have a look at http://aegis.sourceforge.net/.
  

Indeed, anyone who actually wants to shoulder real work, is freely entitled to support the system that will make their life easiest.  Bear in mind, however, that if you don't already have a firm favorite, you have "matching offers" from Kitware and myself to implement a Dart Dashboard.

Here for instance is a dashboard for KDE, which moved to a CMake build system this year.

Matching contributions, especially Kitware's, need to be considered as part of your evaluation.  I will offer build support no matter what anyone does, but I can do a lot more if you pick Dart, because it seamlessly integrates with CMake.  I consider it a no-brainer if you don't already have expertise with a test system and your own big ideas about how everything should be done.
