Default Pros and Cons of each ROM?

After being on these forums for a while, I've come to know the 5 main ROMS for the D4.
  • AOKP
    The Arctic
    SELFKANG/CM9
    Gummy
    Eclipse

I think that there should be a thread that compares each ROM, and that helps people, myself included, choose from these wonderful pieces of software that would best be suited for their likings.

If I may, I came from CM7, and I miss it dearly. I also enjoyed MIUI, but always came back to CM7.

I am excited about CM9, but more than ICS, I want some tweakability and theming again. I would love to see CM7 themes.

However, my biggest actual need, is lapdock support. Whatever custom rom supports it will be my first choice.

I just wish I could code to help. Alas, I am not a coder.

I was more referring to features of the listed rooms in my first post. But theming and such are good things to discuss too

Is it still true that none of the ICS ROMs have a working video camera yet due to driver issues?

I'm still on stock, but recent issues with Bluetooth AVRCP being completely broken in both versions of the stock ROM have me interested in taking the plunge.

It's true. For video to work I guess we'll have to wait for an ICS release from Motorola. Doubt any dev will work on it knowing Motorola will release it.

I for one am a happy AOKP user. Not sure if you would be. Some have reported audio issues with ICS/AOKP/AOSP. At the moment I have no need for Bluetooth audio. Except maybe my carkit.
