For those of you patiently (or not so much) waiting for Cyanogen and Team Douche to release a semi-official Android 2.2 ROM, it's time to get flashing. CyanogenMod-6.0.0 RC1 was posted up early this morning, with builds for the Nexus One, Dream and Magic, which should cover a good many of us. You can snag the new builds in the usual places, including the CM Nexus One and D/M forums, XDA Developers (N1, D/M) and our favorite, ROM Manager.
For the noobs out there, the CyanogenMod series of ROMs are custom built from the official Android Open Source Project files by trained professionals (professional somethings, anyway), tested and released to the masses. (Check out the full changelog here.) We swear by 'em, and you should, too. [Cyanogen]
Update: A new CM Droid ROM is now in ROM Manager and the other usual places. Huzzah!

Can't wait for this fully working on the incredible.
I am anxious for an evo release.
I think Changelog link is broken... but that's on their end.
I've heard so much about CyanogenMod...
I'm awaiting an Evo release as well cause it seems promising.
404 on the change log Phil.
Is AC starting to have its own Slashdot effect or is their site always that slow?
It worked for me after a few tries. It looks like github is having issues today.
need some evo love please 1!
Don't forget some Droid Lovins:

I heard someone is sending him an Evo and he might start developing for it.
Really doubt you will see a evo or inc Rom. They got into trouble with HTC so they try not mess with it.
All three of the phones listed in the article are made by HTC...
its all about the sense ui. that is where he got in trouble at
doesn't mean he can't cook a rom without sense ui.
Didnt CyanogenMod put out a statement a few weeks back saying that they were going to do a mod for the Evo? They posted it here on AC, along with just about every other android site, even engadget posted it i think
I seem to remember seeing something about an evo release. I hope I am not just imagining it though.
IS THIS ROM FOR MOTO DROID
no the moto droid is not released yet.
would any of these work on the cdma hero?
The Droid one is smooth. Very. Nice and very custmizable.
EVO users, its almost here!!!! Cyanogen tweeted that they have the cameras working. Brace yourselves, the moment is almost upon us!!!!
I'll wait on a more final version before taking the plunge. But from what I've been reading, this seems like it's gonna be worth voiding that warranty ;-)
WHICH IS BETTER BUGLESS BEAST OR THIS ROM?
WHICH IS BETTER BB V0.4 OR BB V1.1?
