Wiki: "You cannot build part of the tree with CMake and then start building with autoconf...Building with autoconf from the SVN tree is not advisable unless you are prepared to put additional effort into the build."
Recently Tim commented he uses cmake only for the four foundation packages (tqtinterface, arts, kdelibs, kdebase). IIRC one person said s/he was using only cmake. Should those statements be removed from the wiki or clarified?

Yes, those statements should be removed from the Wiki. It is mandatory to build the foundation with CMake for a variety of reasons, and the remaining packages must be built with Autotools because no CMake packaging is available for a majority of them.
