BSD license. Good. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it has its place and this is definitely an example of where it should be used.

CMake. Good. The GNU tools for configuring and building have been superseded - largely through inadequate maintenance and lots of cruft. CMake isn't perfect, way too much logic in one program, but again this is a perfect example of where you would want to use it.

C++ files. Interesting. Those who are into bug bounty hunting might want to check US CERT's website for advised security practices with C++. I don't really see enough natively-compiled code to worry too much, but if you want to grab bounties then I'd start with the simplest part and work out.

Freshmeat - damn, Freecode - is dead, so I can't add this to the vast array of projects I used to monitor and front-page. However, consider the repository tagged.
