The proper way to flash this is to first and foremost have a Nexus S, then wipe data, wipe cache, dalvik cache, then install zip via ClockworkMod recovery

Drew was the first to build a working ICS for us, an excellent preview.
A full stable ICS will soon become boring like all previous versions of Android before it.

Do you remember the date and time that he did this?

He made it work for ns3g and nfc seems working for drew's rom but not for beezy's so I guess he did something additional for his release and not simply copy and paste. Drew clearly stated in his website in all his releases are based on beezy's work which is originally for ns 4G.

Here's a simple way to figure out if Drew is just stealing code:

Run the DIFF command.

I seriously can't believe how ungrateful you people are.. It's disgusting.
This guy didn't sleep and kept releasing betas of ICS for all of you to enjoy. He didn't ask for money like some of you say, and he doesn't say that the build works and ready to be released just to get more money from you. He's just giving you updates about the current state of the build.

Yeah I stayed up with Beezy for 3 days straight watching him get this done. It was really fun watching

He didn't steal anything from those homosexuals at AndroidCentral.

I always found the use of the word -- with the intent of insulting someone -- to be a really odd choice of adjectives. Idiots, fools, morons, and so many more choices that actually, by definition, are truly insulting. Now, if you meant it literally, your plural use of the word is inaccurate. There is only one, and I can only imagine how relieved I'd be knowing your not one after seeing a photo of you.

You should try to address everything I said instead of criticizing this one word

If you'd left out the word it would have been a lot easier to do that.

still we cannot deny drew is responsible for made it flashable on NS3G and he did some improvements over beezy's original ROM intended for NS 4G.

Yes, he had a phone to flash it on and modified the APN setting via a text editor. Kudo's to him for that effort. Hopefully he made it to bed by 9 that night.

    Hey guys, I met a guy from Google, during the Metallica concert in Bangalore ,India :p who had the ICS on his Nexus S, Google had given that for beta testing and I got to use it for some time...

    The GUI is almost the same, obviously the one he had was much more stable and smooth...
    The Google search widget looked different.
    Version, was on Android 4.0.1

    Turns out they had completed making ICS in September itself , excluding bugs of course...

    I asked him about release date and he said "They're going to release ICS for Nexus S when they release Galaxy Nexus"

    ICS is really worth the wait guys...
