00:55.23 Notify 03GCI: javamonn: cmake case cleanup - A couple notes: I converted everything that I could to lower case. Arguements in cmake are case sensitive so I left them alone. All commands and macros, both user defined and system were changed to lower case. Everything compiles fine on my end. Let me know if anything should be changed. Thanks, Daniel http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/7985244
