Just UL'd early this morning. Its a custom rom, sort of, no custom kernel. My understanding is that CWM Recovery is included, but check the install procedures before attempting.

To quote koush in his droidx recovery release..."this was a bitch"

To install, YOU MUST HAVE THE 2.2 LEAK INSTALLED THEN install my rom.

Use clockworkmod recovery

v0.1 includes

* OptiPNG optimized apk's
* Deodexed
* Busybox
* Updated Superuser.apk (credits to chainsdd)
* Removed
o 3g hotspot
o Kindle (market app)
o Blockbuster (bankrupt company)
o EMERGENCY (dial 911 for emergency's...dont screw around with an app)
o My Verizon (bad market app)
o Maps (market app)
o Voice search (market app)
o Swype (removed for their constant anger towards rom devs)
o Skype (market app)
o Google search (market app)

Download from Rom manager now

Is this stock AOSP or just a modified rom with all the blur bullshit still there? Who is going to make a damn stock ROM. Ugh.

Its a .1 release. Removing Blur is being worked, there's no doubt on that. Support the cause.

FlyX looks like a good start.

edit - I know cvps is working on a GEM for the Droid X as well. The Droid Incredible flavor, Ruby, should be released pretty soon, from what I've read in his tweets.

Gotta admit, the community is getting really good with Android. It used to be you'd see a number of point releases to fix bugs in the big roms, now, they're released in a nearly flawless condition and you don't get very many, if any, bug fix releases. This is good.
