why is Aurora ICS?

---

pls bear with me if i asked a stupid question..

as i know, ICS is based on linux 3.0 kernel..
and Aurora has a linux kernel of 2.6.35..

thus why is Aurora labelled as an ICS rom?

It was same with Gingerbread. The unofficial ports were based on 2.6.32 but 2.6.35 was the main for GB.

So it is ICS, its simply using older kernel. Many unofficial ports for newer Android versions use the kernel that was published by manufacturer.

Blefish, rumours are that you are developing ICS with 3.0 kernel for u8800. Is that true?
