[Q] Just rooted my Kindle Fire, questions about the ROMs

I am completely new to rooting and flashing custom ROMs, but I wanted to get more out of my 1st gen Kindle Fire. After studying the excellent guide done by kinfauns, I have rooted and flashed the CM10.1 RC2. Then I wondered what is the difference from the ROM I downloaded on CM's website vs the ones on this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859851. A lot of them are still CM10.1. So what exactly is the difference between the CM10.1 on this list and the release candidates and nightly's on CyanogenMod?

Thanks, Hashcode, for CM10 on the Kindle Fire HD 8.9!

I am referencing: Unofficial CyanogenMod 10.1 for the Kindle Fire HD 8.9
Though I am a noob of quality and pedigree (I can "search" and "read"... bizarre concepts, but I do this often), I am still a noob, and don't yet have the ability to publish these thanks in the development thread.
Because of these forums and the tools provided by Bin4ry and Hashcode, I was able to root, install a second bootloader, and get CM10 running on my Kindle Fire HD 8.9 in the course of an hour. Now my tablet is acting more like a real Android tablet.
Thanks.

Most stable kindle fire ROM?

Hi everyone,
I recently got an old kindle fire 1st gen from someone and want to install a custom rom on it, I have rooted it installed custom recovery but I want to know what's the most stable ROM(other then stock) for it regardless of how old or new it is or it's version of android.
Thanks,

What version of Android are you looking for? Or are you perhaps interested in other OSs? I suggest checking out @sd_shadow's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859851 thread.
Choosing a thread you are interested in and reading at least the last several pages of it to see if anyone has reported problems is a good place to start. If you are up for @Hashcode's OtterX partition conversion, I've found the latest versions of all the OtterX KitKat and Lollipop ROMs to be stable.

Thanks for replying, I have seen several threads but still feel confused, I recently got a used first gen kindle from someone and want to flash a custom rom so it's more like an android tablet as I don't like the kindle interface and features :/, wanted to ask based on user experience which rom has soo far been the most stable lollipop or kitkat or jellybean would be fine, but I assumed lollipop would probably be less stable as it recently got released?
Also by stable I meant to say the rom which runs the fastest

I recommend a cyanogen 11 build. 201440719-1623-otter-sgt7
Only because based on what I'm reading you probably don't want to mess with converting partition files to run the otterx builds. Just my opinion since this is your first time around.

I did convert to otterx and installed the slimpop ROM, it seems to lag which was what I had guessed would happen if I went to lollipop, but is it any faster or better on kitkat or jellybean as compared to lollipop?
Thanks

[Q] Is there a Honecomb ROM for the OTTER?

So basically I'm looking for a Honeycomb ROM or even a Look-Alike for the Amazon Kindle Fire otter (1st gen) and that works with TWRP and FFF 1.4a BL. I know Android never gave the source code of Honeycomb out until ICS or JB, but is it possible to have a port now that the code is available?
Also I currently use CM11, is there even a complete CM11 theme of Honeycomb?
