CMake 2.8.9-rc3 ready for testing!

The CMake 2.8.9 release candidate stream continues! You can find the source and binaries here:

 http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/?C=M;O=D

Some of the notable changes in this release are:

• the new Ninja generator is now enabled by default on Windows (and now Mac, too!)
• added POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE target property, automatically adds -fPIC and -fPIE for compilers that require it
• added -Dvar=value command line handling to ctest
• added MUMPS coverage support to ctest, including GTM and Cache
• and, as always, various minor bug fixes

The bug tracker change log page for this version is at:

 http://public.kitware.com/Bug/changelog_page.php?version_id=93

Following is the complete list of changes in this rc since the second rc. Please try this

version of CMake on your projects and report any issues to the list or the bug tracker.

This will be the last release candidate, which will become final unless somebody

reports a serious regression in behavior.

Thanks!
