I highly EXPECT Samsung to give us Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 - Epic 4G General

They will do it. I promise...
They promised to give the galaxy s line updates as long as the hardware allows them to. They will also not lock their phones unless goofed makes them...

Sanding to give is?

I'd honestly bet against the Epic getting Ice cream sandwhich. Hope I'm wrong though, obviously.

I too am highly confident that it will. If they announce that it won't. Let's all do what we did too get htc too stop locking bootloaders

I expect it 6months in after our "SGSII Within."

I frankly don't really care if they give us ICS or not. I want the Nexus S 4g kernel to work on our phones so that we can run AOSP, CM7 and MIUI. If that happens then I don't care if Samsung abandons it completely.

Wow, if you're sure it can be done easily from the Nexus S dump then it must be true.

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm sure Samsung is tired of being shown up by a bunch of dev's on a forum who don't get paid for what they do. I'm not worried though because even if they go to a locked bootloader, give it a week or two and someone will find a way to unlock it or just get around it. I have full confidence in the dev's here...
This is a leak for the International version of the Galaxy S....this might not mean anything for us just yet...
At least it's a start. Given that the International versions got their Froyo in November (?), maybe we'll get ours in roughly 3 months after that due to conversions to CDMA and all the other stuff our unique Epics have.

With Moto already locking bootloaders and HTC fiddling with the idea, I think a lot of people in the scene are a bit concerned.
I can totally see the entire hobby marginalizing itself to Nexus devices some day. It's not like any major vendor is going to step up just to appeal to a tiny community of hackers any more than carriers are stepping up to make their networks strong enough for that 2% of customers sucking up bandwidth. :/
How can they legally lock the bootloaders? Wasn't it ruled that once we purchase these devices, they're OURS and we can hack/root/jailbreak them all we want?

You can hack it all you want and void your warranty, but they are not required to ALLOW you the ability to do it. They just can't do anything about it other than void your warranty.

If he's working with Sammy remember that they are corporate and he is a member of their corporation now, and he must follow by their rules and regulations. This could mean the end of Cyanogen era as well.
Remember these corporations don't care 100% of what we do with their phones because they consider it "out of bounds". Hint: Remember what MS did with the dev group that was hacking their phones?????

As someone who has never used Cyanogenmod, I just don't get the hype surrounding this project. I have a general understanding on why development is where it is for the Epic currently, but I definitely don't get the butt-hurt posts/threads on this topic. (Not inferring that this thread is one of those types of threads. )
Aside from the AOSP look/feel of it, what's the real hype over the project?

My impression from skimming that ongoing discussion was- the final consensus was that our phones don't have the hardware to support it. Despite probably some misleading tidbit of information a long time ago.

Ability to live without it or not, they won't release it. Its somewhere in the spectrum of "unwritten rule of XDA" to potentially a law, I'm not sure. Regardless its a good idea. Don't want a buggy ROM to lead to someone dying!
