Which Custom ROM are you running?

Tell me which custom ROM you are running, and why you like it, and if you could post download and discussion links, that would be good too.
Make sure they have a Telus Mobility version for the Apache.

I'm currently running Kirvin's rom, which I made from his ill-fated kitchen.

Even if you just use the clean and simple rom he has posted here; I have found it to have the best balance of features and stability.

ROM = custom Rom i built using his version of the kitchen (C&S+)
it has been great

I use Kirvins C&S 3.5 1.02 because it is fast and stable. I have hover done many more reg hacks to suit my desires and needs.

Helmi's WM6... one ROM to rule them all...

[Ryan07]

I created my own with the 3.5.1.0.4 kitchen using a mix of pre and self made OEM packages.

Custom OEM with ringtones, theme and a very large rgu file for my registry edits
E-ten Vista dialer
HTC Home plugin (custom icons for the 3 item main panel and app launcher, changed weather to my town)
Live Search
PHM Registry Editor
psShutXP
Microsoft Remote Display
Sprint Customizations
Startup Cleaner
Switch Task Manager
VNC Viewer
Voice Command 1.6

I keep mine very light as I don't do a whole lot on my phone other than check our Exchange email, make phone calls and occasionally remote into a client PC (if I'm not near a PC). My rgu file is massive and makes all my custom changes to the look and feel. When I hard reset, I only have to enter my Exchange password. I used a tip to disable the startup screen and instead set all the values (time & date, screen alignment, etc) through my rgu file.

As a matter of personal preference, I don't see why anyone would use another person's ROM. With all the walkthroughs here, creating your own ROM is really pretty easy to do and you aren't stuck with someone else's preferred applications. Just my opinion.
