CyanogenMod (pronounced /saɪ.'æn.oʊ.dʒɛn.mɒd/) is an open source replacement firmware for smart phones and tablet computers based on the Android mobile operating system. It offers features and options not found in the official firmware distributed by vendors of these devices.
Features supported by CyanogenMod include native theming support, FLAC audio codec support, a large Access Point Name list, an OpenVPN client, an enhanced reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, CPU overclocking and performance enhancements, soft buttons and other "tablet tweaks", toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS), app permissions management, as well as other interface enhancements. According to its developers, CyanogenMod does not contain spyware or bloatware. CyanogenMod is also stated to increase performance and reliability compared with official firmware releases.
CyanogenMod is developed as free and open source software based on the official releases of Android by Google, with added original and third-party code.

CyanogenMod was first ported to the HTC Wildfire S by alquez via CM7, it was later ported by gladiac to CM9, this was a big leap as Google had changed multiple things in the 4.0 Android update. I personally took the challenge of porting gladiac's work to the jellybean version of Cyanogenmod, CM10. Once I had a booting ROM I posted it on XDA. Since then, many things have changed in CM's own code and I have merged many of WinSuk's and gladiac's fixes into my personal repos.

Q) Where is X that was in CM9?
A) It's not ported to jelly bean by the CM team yet, wait a few weeks and it'll probably be merged
Q) Gallery doesn't sync with picasa
A) There is currently no fix to this due to the way the gapp packages work.
Q) For your next build can you include X?
A) Not really, I want to keep this as stock cyanogenmod as possible.
Q) Why does this have the wrong boot animation?
A) It doesn't, there is no official CM10 boot animation for now so I'm using the CM9 one, but I will be using an unofficial CM10 one soon.
Q) Where's Google Play?
A) Flash gapps.
Q) Do I have to wipe data coming from CM9?
A) I had many bugs when I didn't, so I recommend you do.
Q) Do I have to wipe data going from nightly builds?
A) Defiantly not. But in the case that you do get an annoying bug, wipe data and that should fix it.
Q) What recovery should I use?
A) Any, as long as they work. Tested with my own TWRP 2.2 and with CWM-based 6.0.0.7 port by gladiac.
Q) Why is this not marked as beta or alpha
A) Because not even CM10 itself is in alpha, so this is pre-pre alpha

Me and modpunk do talk from time to time over IRC, he's been educating me on some linux stuff, so our relationship is a bit better than it was :P
As for alquez, afaik he's busy with work and stuff. He hasn't been around for a while so I have no idea what he's up to :P
