CyanogenMOD 9 Alpha Builds Released for Nexus S

The minute the source code for Android 4.0 was released, members of CyanogenMOD went to work bringing the popular custom ROM to the eponymous Nexus device, the Samsung Nexus S. Currently sitting at the 11th Alpha build, the ROM is fairly bare-bones — it uses the stock ICS launcher, and incorporates few of the features that made CM7 so great — but it’s a stable, functional ROM that brings the newest version of Android to the Nexus S before Google releases it publicly. Keep in mind you must have a rooted device for this to function properly, and know your way around a recovery menu.

Keep in mind this is an Alpha build. Though it may be stable, undesirable things may happen. Use at your own risk.

If you wish to get a little more elbow deep within this alpha build, you can head over to XDA.
