[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Welcome; I wanted to offer a little "something" back to the XDA community in the hopes that it will benefit others and to show my appreciation to the folks that make XDA the great community that it is.

There are many chefs that provide quality ROM's for you to use. However, if you've gotten excited about the idea of cooking your own ROM's, you've probably felt overwhelmed by the volume of Forum Threads and Wiki pages at your disposal to learn how to do this. The goal of this thread is to provide a starter kitchen so as to help new and intermediate chefs; the kitchen will produce a fully functional ROM for a Raphael device.

The kitchen includes a Read Me and Change Log file. The Read Me file contains answers to frequently asked questions as well as "known" issues. The Change Log file includes a list of changes that were made to files such as the .RGU, .PROVXML, etc.
