[REQUEST] Follow TP's Devs on TWITTER!! Help out and contribute - TouchPad General

This is a simple request intended for anyone who is currently following a TP android developer. Specifically a Dev working on a ROM or the ICS FW. I personally would like to keep tabs on these individuals myself.
PLEASE NOTE that upon this request, I am fully aware and I fully understand the the rule prohibiting ETAs inquiries. I also expect anyone and/or eveyone following this thread to do the same and respect these guys. No joke.
So if someone could be kind enough to point me in the right direction, I would be most grateful.

To start. I'm currently following Erik Hardesty aka @dalingrin on twitter. Erik is currently working on the ICS port to the TP. Its been a real joy to have semi-live updates on his teams work. Hats off to them.
REMMBER, NO ETA INQUIRIES

[Q] LG Axis AS740 and ROM Development

First, I would like to start this post off by stating that YES I am very new to Android development, please don't flame me for this, as everyone was once a beginner. Second, I have only made one post thus far, so I am trying to abide by the forum rules, I'm hoping that I have chosen the correct section for this thread. I was going to use the development section, but noticed that it was mainly used for posting ROM's, and I didn't want to bloat up the guru's development posts with a commonly 'n00b' post (LoL).
I doubt I need to ask the question, "Where is all the development for the LG Axis AS740?", as I'm sure we all know how crappy of a phone this is, however, I would like to know if there is any current paths I may take towards ROM Development for this particular device? To be more precise, if anyone could point me to any development resources for this phone, it would be very appreciated. I have already installed JAVA JDK, and the Android SDK, so I'm on my way to learning program dev for my device. If I need any help with app development, I know I'm in the right place, as I have a immense respect for you guys here on the XDA forums because of the immense amount of information everyone has worked so hard on, and provided to the users of this forum.
I did notice the post "LG Axis Rom", I browsed it hoping to find my answer there, but no one has responded to the author. I for one do not wish for a senior member, or veteran to magically provide me with their hard work by asking for someone to develop a working ROM for me; as I have seen some poster's do. I am asking that someone be gracious enough to provide me with the information to help me onto the proper path, so that I may have a proper starting point. I have read over a few development sections, but alas, I know how development for one device can be vastly different for another.
Thanks go out to all whom may respond to this thread, and many thanks for your time, and any information you may provide.

[Q] Best place for Cyanogenmod 9 news and updates

Hi everyone, I know this may have been asked before somewhere and I'm sure a senior member will bash my head in verbally for not putting this in the right place or for asking at all. But here's my question anyways:
Where is the best place to get updates and/or news on when Cyanogenmod 9's official release will be avialble for the SG II? I have tried the experimental build that Codeworkx made available and he did an amazing job with it but I had major issues with the video functionality as per the changelog information.
I'm not complaining about the work or build, it's a process I know that. I've just decided to wait for an official release. And with that in mind I just want to keep up on when it comes out or is about to come out.
If anyone can point me in the right direction or can help me out that would be great. And if I've violated any rules with this question I apologize, I promise I searched every forum for the answer and came up short.
Thanks in advance

[Q] General Knowledge ROM Question

Hello People,
I have a keen interest in Android and ROMs etc but no programming or development knowledge, just an interest. I've rooted and put a couple of different ROMs on my old HTC Desire thanks to XDA and its community of developers and will do the same with my SGT10.1 as soon as ICS is stable and has a working camera .... Thank you all!
What I'd like to know is what's different between Google releasing ICS and say Microsoft releasing Windows 7? Why can't I go to a shop or website, purchase or download ICS and install it on my device in a similar fashion to installing a new OS on my PC?
It seems to the ignorant (me) that they make life very difficult for the devs on this site and others! I appreciate that this is probably a stupid question, but I would really be grateful for someone to take a min to explain, for example, what happens after the developers get a copy for the ICS open source code and before they/you grace us with a stable build for a device? Why is the completed ICS from Google not suitable to simply install? One reason that comes to mind is device drivers! Maybe I've just answered my own question!!!
Again, thanks for all the hard work ... whatever it is?
Not meant to sound rude, but do you really want to wait a few years between gingerbread and ice cream sandwich, pay a ridiculous amount for it, and still have to update it almost constantly?
The difference is Microsoft and generous developers.
Microsoft makes millions.
Android open source developers get self satisfaction and other things, but very little, if anything, in monetary payment (donations).
I know Google is a huge money corporation, but I would hate to see things go the way Microsoft does things in regards to operating systems software.
There are many technical reasons related to the many thousands of different devices, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to comment, so I'll leave that to someone else who is.
Actually, I think you did your own question.

[Poll] Your thoughts on making a fundraiser for custom kernel development/support

Admins, delete if not allowed
So, as I was searching in forums and web pages, I've encounter that the Xiaomi Mi 9 is "forgotten" by kernel developers, some people say it's because of the popularity of some devices like the OP7 Pro, some other says its because there are a lot more interesting devices out there.
What I'm trying to say, is "If the mountain will not come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain".
So what I suggest is make a fundraiser to a kind developer, so he can work (or at least have fun) with our device, either kernel level or something else, of course with his previous consent.
There is so much potential in our device and room for improvements at kernel level (at least on xiaomi's), even more now with that 84Hz mod that it's still very raw in terms of development and maybe this is the chance to at least have a little more development on the forums.
Of course, there is absolutely no obligation on the developers part to release a final product, donations should be seen as support towards a best-effort on the part of the developer that accepts be part of this (possible) fundraiser.
So if you have in mind a great developer, leave his name below, If I'm out of my mind, just ignore or vote correspondingly :good:
It is not allowed
We did a fundraiser already for demon000, apparently XDA no longer allows this though. He is currently working on our device, but good things take time.
See: https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/how-to/fundraiser-official-los-aosp-t3936463
Keep track here for his kernel development: https://github.com/Demon000/kernel_xiaomi_sm8150
