They use the LUS repository for code maintenance/changes. They use the build system to set up new systems completely from scratch (apart from pgplot), which works even for the GRID . This is a feature they do not want to loose, as all software needed for pulsar data processing and analysis is now in one locations and it is all working together.
To build it all takes a long time (especially first time), and improvements can be made; certain depencies do not have to build all the time.
They do not have much CMake experience.

CR tools:

All software is developed in and committed to the LUS repository.
They use the LUS build system. Installing the entire package is sometimes problematic on new systems (not all dependiences are detected properly).
Also during development/testing they use the build system of LUS
Pim and Martin are up to speed in CMake

RM Synthesis:

Small package, but development and build has been taken out of LUS; Build time too large which didn't work for them! They intend to keep the code separated.
Their group is Munich based, and so is quite isolated from LOFAR development → difficult to find the right people to help them out with problems.
Uncertain of their CMake knowledge capabilities.
