I am quite fond of OmniRom. What will future Omni features be and will any others be Omni unique (Multi-view, ect)?

This is my first nexus device,
i often hear how great AOSP, and AOKP is. being pure google experience.
So AOSP is pure google, and the most famous one is cyanogen team which makes cyanogen mod.
AOKP is based on cyanogen works and they add more stuff to their kang roms.
i'm seeing some roms in development thread labeled as aosp.
isn't the nexus7 stock rom considered aosp?
what's going on?
The ROMs on nexus devices are AOSP. Cyanogenmod is compiled from aosp. But with changes.
ROMs labeled AOSP will be based from 'pure android'.
Hope this answered your question
Hi there,
Since a few days there are some new roms popping up, especially some all in one roms as PAC, Rootbox and Revolt.
All are based on CM / AOKP / PA. But what are exactly the differences between them?
Thanks in advance

You have AOSP (android open source project) that is the base source code released by Google (google does it's development behind closed doors, typcially without input from other developers, and then just released a "version" out to the public. Version = 4.2.2 Jellybean, 4.1.x ICS,...)
CM, AOKP, are basically modifications on top of AOSP (they might have slightly different/better lock screens, features, tweaks etc.... a combination of different ideas to improve on the system)
PA is a modification based on an idea(DPI control over apps and UI) on top of AOSP
When you have AIO ROMs, they basically cherry-pick amongst the different features or modifications available. Sometimes, the tweaks from CM and AOKP are not compatible (like they both make modifications to the lock screens.... which one to choose? Combine both, or only use one?. CM/AOKP doesn't have DPI control, so combining CM+PA should be fine)
If you look at the AIO Rom changelock, they'll tell you

Hello
I am fed up of the TouchWiz look and feel.
I want to stay closest to AOSP in look and feel, apps, etc.
All Android 4.3 and 4.4 versions posted on XDA have some or the other bugs for I9500 (in both Android development and Android Original development)
When I checked CM downloads. there is one 10.2 stable build for I9505 (Officially supported) on their site.
All unofficial builds are ported on XDA, and I9500 is an unofficial device for CM.
For I9500, on XDA, we have both CM 10.2 nightlies and CM 11 nightlies. But none of them have any stable builds.
Also, no AOKP, Slim, etc.
Where can I get a pure AOSP look and feel kind of ROM. Even Android 4.2.2 will also do.

the latest version of miui for n7100 is quite old(both official and mdiary).In the official ones they have used the samsung apps itself(like camera) whereas the diary build is older .Anyway miui is not being updated.RRemix is regularly updated and has lot more features than mini.In my opinion don't go for mini.

1. There is a miui v5 4.4 version which is built on the omni rom it is quite sluggish imo and miuiv5 ceased before it had a chance to improve.
2. There is a miuiv5 4.2 which is cyanogenmod based which is stable but has no touchwizz based apps like s-note and s-pen and samsung camera
3. Now the miuiv5 4.1 is fully touchwizz based and very stable with samsung apps like s-pen and S-note fully working Samsung keyboard with spen support and Samsung camera
In my opinion 4.1 Is best visually better and faster in every way
