Is that strictly true? With droid 4.1 not being a major update, I can't see there being a HUGE difference in Kernel.

Hope progress on that is still continued, cause without the proper kernel, it will just make ICS on our devices render useless when it comes to core features.

Not being a 5.0 dev or a kernel dev don't hold me to my words, but I believe you must change the kernel before it boots a next android iteration. At least that was the case with honeycomb.

But if I remember rightly, in order to boot CM9 properly on the Nook TABLET, they had to use the GB kernel.

I am not saying you cannot use a older kernel, I just think you cannot use a unmodified older kernel.

Hope not. Definitely want to see a post GB ROM as a daily driver. Hope dev work is still continued.

Well Jackpot's CM9 port used the CM7 kernel, if I recall.
