Because some devices that has cm7 won't necessarily get cm9???

yeah. they released a flow chart with percentages a week ago. if i find ill link. but based on the flow chart we have ~66% chance of official cm9 (do we really need it though?) we already have a AOKP, Gummy, MIUI v4, nightly kangs, THS and Codename (most of these roms from Stephen.k.spear thanks btw) so in all reality, would the world end with out offic cm9?

I think you missed the point...
not really, cm9 is not everyones style. i personally dont really enjoy ICS. what i mean is its not all its cracked up to be. Google hypes the **** out of their software and i dont blame them but i think they did it right with gb and ill probably be running this or the skang nightlies until i upgrade in may

Not if I have anything to say about it. We'll get added at some point. Enjoy my kangs until then.

Considering sbrissen just added the files needed to builds from CM9 directly I'm guessing he's planing on a merge....

"cwm 2.5.x all" is only recovery that backs up stock rom to my knowledge. You will need to flash it to make your backup then flash "cwm fixed for cm7" to proceed with cyanogenmod.

Out of curiosity, can that be flashed from Rom Manager?

i downloaded the cwm 3.0.0.8 zip file and acording a video on youtube all i have to do is to use the root explorer, rename the recovery from the bin folder and copy there the one i downloaded... so far so good but when i go onto the recovery mode y select the backup/restore option it shows me a buch of errors "E: cant mount cache/partition" and cant open the same path... the thing is that the .zip i downloaded with the recovery has like 4 folders "META-inf" "sbin" "res" "etc"... im new in this whole thing :S please be patient with me...
