[aspect-devel] Switching Aspect to cmake

[Thomas Geenen]

with cmake you can always build out of source if you want by creating your
own dir and running cmake from there. i usually have a few different builds
around (different compilers and/or mpi flavors, instrumented with scalasca
etc)
with cmake i will be able to do that more efficiently compared with the
current make based setup.

cheers
Thomas
