It's not that much that you need to know about cmake. I (or others) will 
answer all your questions in this regard.
It's no problem if you (now) know only about one platform, bug reporters will 
tell you about the other platforms :-)

* it should use the find_package_handle_standard_args() macro instead of 
manually setting OPENGLES_FOUND
* the result variables of the find_library() and find_path() calls should be 
mark_as_advanced()'ed
* also the find_path() call dhould use the new syntax (with "NAMES" 
and "PATHS")
* check which search directories are necessary, i.e. not part of the default 
set of search directories. E.g. /usr/lib and /usr/include are part of the 
default search directories. You can have a look at 
CMAKE_DIR/share/cmake-2.x/Modules/Platform/UnixPaths.cmake for this.

Beside that, this file looks quite straightforward, so it shouldn't be a 
bigger problem to get this into cmake.
