Hello,

thanks for spending time in this direction! Makefiles were for long
supposed to get a review.


I am not familiar for CMake, but if it is considered a good option, I am
fine with it. For now, a few questions:


  - is it already building the modules as well, or only the core for now?

  - can it be used also for building the docs (e.g., README files for
modules)?

  - any of the old Makefiles need to be kept, or all of them will be
replaced?


Cheers,
Daniel
