Continuing on from gh123man's Open ICS thread, we extended the scope of the project to cover the A100 & A200 devices too.
For the last month we've been quietly working on this & the wheels are now in motion to get the devices merged into CyanogenMods source.
It should only be a matter of time till the nightlies start rolling.

Merge status: Done
If you wanted to compile for yourself, follow one of the many guides on xda to get your machine set up & the CyanogenMod source downloaded.
Following instructions are for the a500, substitute a100 or a200 as needed

Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_a500-userdebug

Wait for the device folders to be downloaded.
Connect your device via adb.

Run extract-files.sh in the device/acer/a500 folder

Code:
brunch cm_a500-userdebug

wait for the compile to finish (can take a while), flash new rom...

Builds (see post 2)

Contributors:
myself, gh123man, hbwelch, randomblame, shchers

Please hit the thanks button on some of their posts too, this has been a team effort. :)

Once we're official, threads will be started for each of the devices in their respective forums, in the meantime it'd be good to keep discussion here so it's a little easier for us to track.

Not working:

Known bugs:
Wifi? haven't had a report of trouble in a long time... tentatively saying this is no longer an issue

Reporting bugs
Please please please read the following:
If you have a bug, we need a bit more info than "such & such isn't working"

Things to check before reporting a bug
Did you wipe before flashing the build?
If no, nandroid, wipe & re-flash...
Check to see if the bug still exists.

Did you restore settings/data using Ti backup or similar?
If yes, nandroid, wipe, re-flash & don't restore your data...
Check to see if the bug still exists.

If you've done the above, & the bug is still there, we need some debugging info!
logcat output is usually a pretty good start (post it to pastebin or similar), we will let you know if we need more.

Credits & thanks:
vache - all the leaked ROM's
drellisdee - patched A500 kernel
CyanogenMod - source
Google - source
More to come.

FAQ
Q: assert.failed:getprop("ro.product.device")=="Picas so" || getprop("ro.build.product")=="picasso" E:Error in /sdcard/Download/update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-picasso-UNOFFICIAL-signed.zip Status 7
A: Open the zip. Go to META-INF/com/google/android/update-sctipt. Remove the top line with the assert then repackage and flash :) has to do with your recovery. some recovery's name the device differently (thors for example does this, just as an example). our tree uses the device name picasso, if the recovery does not use picasso it will fail, the only fix for this is a unified recovery or to remove the line from the update-script, hope this more detailed answer helps more...

You, sir, are a massive tease! :p

Open the zip. Go to META-INF/com/google/android/update-sctipt. Remove the top line with the assert then repackage and flash :) has to do with your recovery

EDIT: added to the FAQ

step by step for the leak?

Ok, I installed the .31 leak. I am happy with it though I noticed some SoD's over the past few days.

I have cm9 on my Captivate and I love it so I want it on the tablet as well. CM has a very nice wiki that walks you though rooting and installing.

Could someone provide some more fleshed out steps for this ROM as well?

I assume I need to:
1. root the leak, probably with blackthundr's method
2. install Clockwork recovery mod (can I use Acer recovery from Google market instead?)
3. boot into recovery and install the rom (factory reset and cache wipes etc, etc)

Am I missing anything? The waters are so muddied for the casual enthusiast with the various leaks and bootloaders and the sudden influx in roms.

Thanks for your work and your patience,

Okay, as I am pretty new to this device as well and I was facing the same situation as you were in, I'll share my experience in this matter:

I basically followed the instructions here to get the correct bootloader and cwm but instead using the package there I used the package from this post under section 1.1.

But I wasn't on the leak so getting my CPUID wasn't as easy as reading out the dmesg (but for you it should work out). I did the nandroid trick as discribed in this post by Euclid's Brother. The UID.txt was under /mnt/external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/2012-04-12.20.33.00/uid.txt. The text in that file I filled in Vache's site to generate my SBK.

Enjoy the reading :D

After that it was pretty easy. Just flash through cwm and don't forget to flash the gapps but you are used to that.

For a first release, this is amazing! Super fast and no bugs so far. All hw works as expected, including the camera. That's especially amazing for an "unofficial" build. Love the boot screen, btw. Can't wait for this to go into the CM9 sources. Definitely a great way to bring new life to the A500. :D

    Hi All,
    I am currently re-working the audio HAL, still a WIP but needs testing & feedback.

    - external mic detection is fixed (need to know if capture volume is ok?)
    - overall volume should be better
    - HDMI audio should hopefully be working (I have no means to test this)

    please test & report your findings.
