CMake, Kitware's open-source software process and build tool, is used throughout the world in a variety of software systems. There are several ways that CMake users can contribute to this open source toolkit:
1. Join the CMake Mailing Lists:
- The CMake mailing list is the principal means of communication among developers and users.
- The CMake-Promote mailing list is a list devoted to promoting CMake to the world.
- The CMake-commits mailing list receives CVS commit loginfo messages.
The CMake project is always looking for new module maintainers. If you are interested in maintining a CMake Module, send an email to the CMake mailing list and read the information here.
3. List your project on the CMake Wiki
4. Test CMake on your system:

5. Write an article for the Source!
The Kitware Source is a quarterly newsletter for developers designed to deliver detailed technical articles, information on recent releases and upcoming changes related to Kitware's open source products. Kitware would like to encourage our active developer community to contribute to the Source. Contributions may include a technical article describing an enhancement you’ve made to a Kitware open-source project or successes/lessons learned via developing a product built upon one or more of Kitware’s open-source projects. Authors of any accepted article will receive a free, five volume set of Kitware books. Please send your ideas to editor@kitware.com.
