Is there a ROM Kitchen for the Wizard?

I see folks posting their snazzy ROM's (awesome work, guys) and I see that in some other forums (Blue Angel most notably) there are "Rom Kitchens" posted for those devices, but I don't see anything similar for the Wizard. Clearly there are methods--the plethora of ROMS here proves that--but how would I go about starting to build my own? I've done a lot of custom installation/OS configuration stuff with Win2k/XP/2003 and countless apps (I'm a regular at www.msfn.org and have used tools like nLite and WPI extensively in my own labors for both work and pleasure) with great success, so I'm really interested in expanding my horizons to this neck of the woods as well.
I hope that someone could forgive the "n00bness" of my question here, I'd love to be more active in contributing around here, you guys are inspiring me to help, dammit!
Thanks!

If there isn't one, can someone at least please point me in the right direction? I've done what searching I can, but without really knowing the proper terminology it's difficult to find the right answers
Thanks!
Jason
Uh, is it secret or something? I'd really love to help out making some ROMS around here and tend to have plenty of time to do it while at work, is anyone willing to share the info?

Yeah but I don't think there is a ROM Kitchen out yet for the Wizard. Bepe doesn't have one to test with.

Up and Rising Dev?!

I am sort of new to the android os and have kind of taught myself through use of this website how to manipulate the os to help benefit its use. thanks to all of the great dev's that have spent there lesiure time doing what they love. I was just wondering if anyone of those great dev's would take the time to maybe help me out with this development stuff. i kind of wanna learn how to write even just a small free app that i could put on the market to maybe help someone else out. i would need to have a dev who is basically looking for an apprentice, someone like myself who is ( in short a guy with no life ) someone who loves the computer and loves his android phone. i suppose there may be a dev out there that is looking to help someone else out that wants to do what they do, so i will hit all the sites that i have been for the last couple months, wiki, androidspin, xda, google...etc for any info i can read about development and the android os. thanks in advance dev's hopefully someday i will be "cooking roms" for the community to use!

Creating a ROM selection guide using hunch.com

hey guys, thought id open this up for collaboration, I started guide that will help beginners determine what ROM to install and if they have what they need to begin the process.
In 10 questions or less, Hunch will offer you a great solution to your problem, concern or dilemma, on hundreds of topics. Hunch's answers are based on the collective knowledge of the entire Hunch community, narrowed down to people like you, or just enough like you that you might be mistaken for each other in a dark room. Hunch is designed so that every time it's used, it learns something new. That means Hunch's hunches are always getting better.

Good idea, but could use some work. I feel like it had too little questions to judge which rom would be best for me.

Looking For A Mentor

Starting from the day I rooted my phone, I have grown a deep interest on how this wonderful os works. I want to dive deeper and learn how to tweak my phone or cook my own roms.
If there are any good souls out there willing to part with even just a small amount of their time to teach me intermediate or more advanced skills, I would greatly appreciate it.
I am a great learner...I want to be a great dev someday...will you help me?
Thanks

If you find one, then I would love to get in on that too.

Well if you're already good with Java then that's a good start.
Not sure about ROM development but for general Android development you might wanna find this book "O Reilly Head First Android" and it will be the first link on Google. They are fantastic books, the whole series.
Hope this helps some bit.
