What do you mean with "upgrade their distro cmake packages" ? 
To create a cmake 2.6.2 package for their distro or to upgrade their system to 
the latest cmake package available for that distro ?
IOW, who is on that list ?
If we announce that we'll need 2.6.2 in a few weeks, will the people creating 
cmake packages directly or indirectly be notified through this ?
