Android 6.0 is out for Nexus Devices. Lenovo A6000/Plus is Entry Level Phone which may/maynot get Android 6.0 update. Remember the delay in the Lollipop update . I have contacted the Lenovo India via Twitter & they responded to have no information in regard with this. So I expect developers here to start deveoping a Marshmallow ROM for A6000/Plus could star
Is the Stock Nexus ROM for Android 6.0 enough to develop a ROM for A6000/Plus?
I am not a expert here & would like to see your responses....

OxygenOS is an alternative ROM to Cyanogen OS for OnePlus One.
OxygenOS is officially developed and supported by OnePlus.

Latest Update of OxygenOS >> https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/update-oxygenos-1-0-3-with-the-latest-stagefright-patches.354409/
However, it is not being updated by OnePlus as of now, but they have promised to provide Android Marshmallow version for OxygenOS in 2016 Quarter 1.
You can also find many video tutorials on how to flash it on YouTube and many toolkits are available for flashing.
I hope this helps you.
I see some Android devices already have Android 6.1 but it seems the Nexus 5 is still only coming with 6.0.1. Will the Nexus 5 still get official updates to 6.1 this summer? Or is the device getting closer to "End of Life"?
Also, my girlfriend has a Oneplus 1 which recently upgraded to Cyanogenmod 13.1, I suppose which is based on Android 6.1. However, I can't find any 13.1 snapshots, not even nightlies for the Hammerhead on the Cyanogenmod project page: download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hammerhead
Is it too early to ask for CM 13.1? What about Android 6.1? Does anyone have any information or ideas about that?
Where did you see an official Android 6.1???
There's no official CM nightly called CM13.1 for bacon: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon

Its not Cyanogenmod 13.1, but stock rom CyanogenOS 13.1. Its different, and based on 6.0.1
Google didnt announded Android 6.1. Maybe Android Nougat will be, but more probably it will be 7.0.
Nexus 5 shouldnt recieve official Android Nougat update, but u will see some CM or AOSP roms for Nexus 5 based on Android Nougat AOSP code.

Well, there is an image called
Code:
cm-13.1-ZNH2KAS1KN-bacon-signed-88797441b5.zip
on cyngn.com/support
The cm-13.1 part looks like a reference to Cyanogenmod 13.1, but as dekefake already pointed out, it's CyanogenOS which I was not aware of. Also, I just noticed they changed the name in the first column from 13.1 to 13.0.1, so I guess it is just a typo (however, the filename still contains the 13.1 reference).

I did a quick google search regarding Android 6.1 and there are a ton of media items announcing Android 6.1 in June 2016, but also I guess it's just a poor researched reference to 6.0.1.
Sorry for the confusion, but it seems I'm not the only one who is confused here
There are big differences between CyanogenMod and Cyanogen OS, mainly open source vs closed-source & Microsoft apps.
There's no CM13.1 (CyanogenMod ROM), no announcement on their blog and Android Nougat 7 will be the next Android update for Nexus 5.

AFAIK the AOSP code is still maintained by Google so we will have a clean version of Android 7 (no need to port from a newer Nexus device => instability).
Anyway, we will have perfect custom roms from Android 7 AOSP branches.
Hi... Google have released the source code for android OREO. Now if we want to build a pure AOSP ROM for any non google device, can we use the device tree, kernel and vender blobs of the Nougat version of that phone or should we wait for developers to release the OREO version of these files to build OREO ROM? If you could please kindly help me out.
