I saw there are cm7 roms in the development forum for atrix, but in cm site the atrix is not on the list of "devices".
checked the nightly build last one was november.
does this mean cm in the forum which supports atrix, is not official one?

It is officially part of CM tree, officially supported as in just the development. No "Final" or "Stable" version that has everything working, therefore it is not on the official page. But that will come in time.
Okay so while everyone is looking out for Cyanogenmod 9, I'm still wondering about CM7...
Simple question, if there is already a stable build, what are the purpose of the Nightly builds? In the link http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/samsung-galaxy-s2 you can select between, Stable, Experimental and Nightly builds. Why would one choose a Nightly build over the Stable build?
Because a nightly is the latest version of the rom. But it is likely to have more bugs then the stable.
For our device there is no CM build labeled as stable. But the nightly builds are stable for daily use.
Can you still follow me? It's just how the rom is labeled.

That's not entirely true, there is a build labeled "stable", here.
However, it's an old build, and you would be better off using a more recent build. I would go as far as recommending a kang build, because the latest nightly is also old. There will be no more nighties for CM7, because CM9 should arrive... in the near future.
The latest semi-official kang, built by codeworkx, is here.
I'm using Novek's build without problems (it contains more recent commits than codeworkx's), which you can download here.
Hello there, I just install the Pac man rom 4.3 nightly, and it crash a lot!
There are two options to choose, the nightly and the release of the rom, what's the difference between this two options, if anyone can help me, please

The difference Is, that the nightly versions may contain some bugs and the release versions are final and approved. I would suggest you to use the Release version as new Nightly versions appear every couple of days and may not be as stable as the release versions.
I saw today that the CM website has a nightly build of CM11 available for the Inc4g now. It's the first nightly build they have posted as far as I can tell. I don't know if it's different than the unofficial CM11 build posted on the development forum so I don't know if it requires any special recovery version like the unofficial build did. I'm also assuming it uses the same gapps version as the unofficial build does.
Just thought i'd mention it for anyone interested.
What does it take for a ROM to move from unofficial to official or is that not how it works? For example, I run cm11 official because its official. I would like to run cm12 but it says unofficial.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.. But... Unofficial is usually when someone compiles the build themselves and share. They sometimes add commits that have not been merged into official builds. Sometimes add add-ons that may not be supported in official builds. Sometimes a dev team may not have a maintainer for a specific official build. Most times unofficial builds aren't always as dependant as official. Sometimes they can be better.
As for CM 12. It went official last night. They are nightly builds, but they are official now. The thread is in the original development section. You can go to the CM site and it shows all the official 11 builds and then starting with 1/6 it is now on official 12 nightly. Hope that helps. ?
Just to clarify. The official CM11 thread is where to go for more info right now. Sure they will probably start a new one soon, but the link still takes you to CM and the latest build is the CM 12 from today 1/6. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=vs985&type=nightly
