locerra and I have been very busy this past week (mostly locerra).
A few kernel changes from a new source drop from the i815, new experiments with loading wifi modules from compat-wireless (no success yet), switching to open source sensor drivers (hopefully this will fix the autobrightness stuff), modifying our device trees to support kernel builds using the build system (no more pre-built kernel/ramdisk), etc.
My computer is compiling nonstop haaahaha. Stay tuned.

also add to that a couple of changes from garyd's kernel (not oc/uv, but some of his fixes), and mostly failed attempts of fixing usb stuffs (such as mtp, adb settings, maybe mass storage for external sd card, etc)
we have made a bunch of progress, just not really progress that would be noticeable for the vast majority of users

hrmm.. maybe I ought to spend some time bringing this over to the 6210. (which would only mean I have to change up the partition table and disable efs and any modem.)
Honestly, there's only one part I _really_ want to fight with: wifi. Why? to stick it to samsung.
Don't be surprised to see a fork from me.

umm.. this is a 2.6.36 kernel?

Gary, I would highly suggest you look at my github. I have a device tree for the p6210 that I try to keep up to date, but I'm already doing all the building for the p6800 and p6810 builds, so I don't really have spare cpu time to build for the p6210.
Also, I just managed to get wifi working -- a modification is needed to a CM repo. I haven't posted a changeset to review yet since I'm still tinkering with a value. Let me know if you need/want help. Aorth and I are on #teamhacksung most of the time, so you can aways get a hold of us there.
Edit:
And yes, it is the 2.6.36 kernel. We need to fix ics gadget support (I have a branch starting that), and probably other stuff. Our wifi module is compat-wireless-3.3-rc1-2 (same as the new touchpad module), plus sdio from the galaxys2 ics source drop. I would like to try to get the teamhacksung smdk4210 kernel working on our devices, but I haven't gotten around to making a uart cable to debug it.

You have wifi working (and working with wpa_supplicant) using that? I remember trying that a while ago (perhaps a different version, but using sdio from the 62x0 kernel) with no luck.
I have to be honest - I'm very seriously considering just patching the 62x0 kernel up to 3.0.26 and seeing how badly things break. It'd probably be best to do that with my recovery partition and "see what happens." I might also take the i9100 ICS kernel source and see what happens with that. Between the two approaches, I might even get a working kernel.
Sadly, I also don't have any UART cables or any other means to see whats going on if I can't get into a shell to see the kernel messages. That makes things more annoying when they don't work (but much more exciting when they do.)
As of a few hours ago, yes. I'm on the P6810, so our hardware is not identical, but our atheros chips are.
The have some configuration for our devices in the i9100 ics kernel, but unfortunately it doesn't build a working kernel. Teamhacksung's smdk4210 incorporates the i9100 ics kernel, as well as a lot of other fixes.I have to be honest - I'm very seriously considering just patching the 62x0 kernel up to 3.0.26 and seeing how badly things break.

Mobile data usage tracking
Good afternoon, folks. Looks like I just got ICS's mobile data usage tracking working...
I found a boatload of patches in Cyanogen's Tab 10.1 kernel tree, and they apply cleanly to our c210 kernel... then just figured out which config options we needed. It should work out of the box for P6800 as well, but I'm not sure if about wifi-only variants; I guess you can tell Android to track data on wifi interfaces, but I'm not sure how useful that is.
More info at my blog (for posterity's sake). Back to code.

It would be incredibly useful to application developers to monitor app data usage and to isolate major problems with data usage before publication.
GPS is working
GPS seems to be working.
It's 2am and raining outside, so I can't be bothered to see if I can get more than 1 satellite

Even though i have a P6210, I'm eagerly following this hoping this will port relatively easily over to the 6210.

71Hear ye, hear ye! I've started porting CyanogenMod 9 to the Galaxy Tab Plus. While it's up and running (and actually quite usable), this is really only a developer preview. Please understand that this is a very rough initial port, and lots of stuff doesn't work.
Warning! Do not flash!
Do not flash this unless you know how to backup your data and especially unless you know how to get back to stock. If you don't already know how to do this, you might want to familiarize yourself with the process now, while the other developers and me get CM9 to a more "daily driver" state. I don't have time to help n00bs unbrick their devices. No offense!
Known issues
Please don't complain about them unless you're willing to fix them.
- USB mounting of internal storage (will never work). Removable sdcard can work, but is disabled for now. Note: USB mounting is different than MTP, which works fine already.
- HDMI out
- Hardware acceleration for DivX/MP3
- IR Blaster
- WiFi is a bit iffy, sometimes you need to toggle it off and on
- GPS doesn't get as many satellites as in stock

Flash from ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.1.x (probably works with 5.0.2.x, but I use 6.0.1.x so your mileage may vary). Make sure to wipe data/factory reset. No whining if it eats your homework.

18I'm baaaack.
I'm back from vacation, and I've synced up with locerra's latest changes to the tab device trees. He's been very productive over the last two weeks, and I have new builds for P6200, P6210, and T869 on their way to the server as we speak...
You'll have new builds verrrrrry soon.15Developer preview 3.2
Here's DP 3.2. Nothing major, just a minor update with the rear-facing camera working again. Note: it's still not working 100%, merely back to how it was before it regressed in DP 3.1 (locerra made some libcamera changes).

P6210: goo-inside.me (md5: 38ed64d1f625ef7d5d174007139f008e)
While it is working, I get roughly 5 out of 10 shots which are plagued by artifacts, for example:
13DP3 for P6210
I've decided to take up managing the P6210 releases for now, since kmmxracer has decided to leave us.
Here's some DP3 love for the wifi guys:

Keep in mind I don't actually have this device... so if it doesn't boot, BREATH, and then tell me what happened.
