Please note that we are not proposing to replace the existing bjam- based build system in Boost. The CMake-based build system will be developed alongside the existing build system. We will not speculate regarding any future Boost policy decisions regarding build systems.

Does that mean a C++ implementation of bjam is still wanted as stated here http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/roadmap ?

I think so, although Python port of Boost.Build makes many of shortcomings of the current bjam no longer important. And of course, volunteers with that project are also welcome, see: http://zigzag.cs.msu.su/boost.build/wiki/PythonPort - Volodya
