Hmmmm.... A noob question real quick:

Does this mean that we'll see stable custom clean ICS ROMs (meaning without TW and without the SPen) shortly or do we still need to wait for Samsung's official ICS release for drivers and stuff?

Don't think it will be quicker
The kernel is not open source and the kernel is what controls the drivers so we will still be waiting for the galaxy note kernel source
However hopefully the note ics will be based on this build
Maybe this is what samsung was waiting for

The kernel IS open source, and the GPL compels them to release the source code. However this doesn't need to be until the upgrade is officially released, expected sometime in Q2
