 What does it matter with '''"linux kernel"'''? What do you mean '''"big
 framework"'''?

 I was thinking that since lots of C/C++ libraries use CMake as their build
 system, it is better for FFmpeg to do so, as well. Besides, using CMake to
 build projects is more convienient and easy-to-use in Windows.
