With Google announcing Android M coming later this year, the ROM developers at Cyanogen have their sights focused on the next version of Android as the basis for their own ROM. Given the time taken to develop CyanogenMod 12 based on Android 5.0 Lollipop and Google already releasing Android 5.1, the snapshot release rolling out now will be the only CM 12 stable version based on the 5.0 Lollipop codebase.

The snapshots of CM 12 that have started to populate the CyanogenMod download page is based on the Android 5.0.2 code. The team that is still working on the Android 5.x line indicates they are moving on to CM 12.1 which will be based on the Android 5.1 code. Effectively this means the version rolling out is simultaneously the first and last version of CyanogenMod based on the Android 5.0 code.

Users who prefer a KitKat based build will find that the final snapshot of CyanogenMod 11 based on Android 4.4 is also rolling out. The CM team indicates this will be the last version of CM 11 to be made available.
