Research direction

Start with CMakeLists.txt and inspect the stated minimum CMake version. Verify that the project still configures and builds with CMake 3.28, then confirm that FetchContent consumers no longer require 3.30.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently, CMakeLists.txt requires CMake 3.30. It would be much more convenient if only 3.28 were required, because 3.28 is the default version on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, and installing a newer CMake, while possible, is still a barrier to entry.

(I tried manually replacing 3.30 with 3.28, and everything seemed to still work. Unfortunately, such manual replacement is hard to do when consuming the library via FetchContent.)
