I am proud to present you with a lean AOSP based ROM.
Omni is a community-based project for the Android community which is Free: Free to Use, Free to Modify, Free to Share. It's also about options, which is the beauty of Android.
Code:
#include
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.

Release 1:

CURRENTLY NOT WORKING:
==============================
- MMS (present in all 4.x ROMs; Just use Textra SMS instead)

- Screen recording (writes zero KB file)
- OpenVPN (kernel issue: cannot acquire tun interface socket)
- SELinux (disabled by intention)
ART support:
The most recent release also includes ART. Please be warned that ART is still considered to be an "experimental mode". Only few apps support it. ART is currently not tested by me and may lead to crashes or even to data loss. Please enable ART only if you know what you are doing and why you are doing this.
Todo list:
==============================
- Add Trackball wake option
- Investigate why hardware keys are not illuminated when you push them
