CMake build system

This repository lacks a CMake build system, which is the modern day Autotools. Are there plans to implement this in the future?
No, I don't think it is needed. Thank you for the suggestion.
Right now I'm depending on this software in one of my projects: Khronos. Because it has so many sub-dependencies, I'm having issues building this dependency portably. The fix is quite simple, migrate to a CMake build system.
I'm quite surprised that this software doesn't have CMake already integrated. Looking at the Wikipedia page, you'll see that lots of modern day software using CMake as their primary build system; that list is also missing a few bigger projects I know of.
You may not think it is needed, but you also aren't the only user of this software. As a software developer, you are supposed to develop for your users. I ask that you reconsider implementing this (it shouldn't take that long to implement properly).
