Default Are more XDA developers going to produce WP7 ROMs?

Would really like to try out WP7 but I heard there are some touchscreen issues with the current and only ROM available. Based on how DFT released the the first Android NAND build and opened the gates for developers to update with new fixes that are currently I can only hope more developers start doing the same with WP7. Also with the workaround to have access to the marketplace does this mean we can also receive updates from Microsoft since they recognize it as a HD7?

I don't think we'll be getting any updates because of our hard buttons and every other wp7's capacitive buttons.. But I could be wrong and hope im wrong

It seems to me like current ROM is pretty much perfect, or as perfect as it's going to get, given that the OS is closed and never existed for this device in the first place (unlike Android/WinMo6).

I've not had a single issue since I installed - everything works identically to a 'real' WP7 device.

Like mentioned, the camera lacking the autofocus is the only major problem in the DFT build. Because Microsoft only has one version available for every manufacturer and they cant make any changes to the system for now, theres not much to develop.
I never thought I'd like WP7 this much, it's clean and simple. With the integration of Zune it's a great mediaplayer.
The only thing you have to do is activate to make the OS usefull, without activating it's just an empty skin.
Oh, a decent door to door navigation app is what's still missing.
