Yes, it will help in development with CM7 and MIUI and the Gingerbread Rom by Whitehawkx.

Ay, hopefully Samsung will learn from the 2.2 American backlash and does things correctly this time around.
Geez that is quick. What happened to the usual 60 days. Good on sammy!
Awesome

Wouldn't it be possible with our 2.2 source and the 2.3 source that the 2.3 source could be modified, using the 2.2 source, to make the GPS work?
Don't get too excited. While this is good, it would still take a lot of work for this to benefit the vibrant.

The thing is, they didn't release GPS source. Only kernel.
Also, we don't have GPS source for our phones either. Only the pre-compiled binary.

I thought that was illegal. Surely the GPS hardware uses a kernel driver, which must link with the GPL2 licensed Linux kernel. The GPL states that the source for GPS driver must be also released, if it is shipped together.
NVidia/ATI got around this by having users break the law for them - ie: you have to compile an open source shim layer that glues their precompiled binary packages onto the kernel. However, this is not the case with phones. Samsung is shipping the product, so they are responsible for complying with the GPL.
So when can we expect miui and cm7 to get updated?
Would love better battery on miui.

Don't be so quick to discount what the community is able to do. However, the kernel source may be needed to get it working properly on our hardware. I'd just say don't hold your breathe for it, it can be a lot of work to port code, just look at cm6.

I don't mean to belittle the devs working on cm6, their hands are tied and this wasn't meant for them and I'm only waiting on mms to just flash it and never look back

Its garbage. Its a proof of concept. We had gingerbread booting on the epic like a day after its release, but not in a functional state. Why completely rebuild an OS when you can take what we have and make it as functional as possible. It would be a waste of dev talents to hand build a Frankenstein gingerbread when there is so much else to work on.

I could port webos. But here's a problem. After you install, you wont be able to get back to android for ANY reason. Without source I have to port /sbin directorys from the pre. So that means no recovery. But you could install kernels from unixphysho. But still. I may not do it because of you can get back.

WebOS would be awesome but unless it could be dual-booted or reverted then no way would I want to use that. And iOS is pretty much impossible to port. If you get either done then more power to ya but it is doubtful. You should use the ICS source release to make us a solid ICS rom.
