Trying to understand.  Do I have this right?

So this is sorta like the pkgconfig stuff currently in style with the Unix world??

CMake built packages would install FooConfig.cmake "config" modules
in, for example /usr/local/lib/cmake.

CMake packages that need Foo would have a FooFind.cmake "discovery" module,
which first looks for its associated config module in a known set of directories.
This allows for fast and easy Foo config settings.  If FooFind.cmake isn't found,
then drop back to the hard way? Or bitch and quit?

So.. I am currently putting the finishing touches on a CMake buildsystem for the libical project.
I should make a LibicalConfig.cmake, right.  What should it look like?  Where should I install it?
