Hi, are you planning to bring up an ICS kernel on the board? The tricky thing may be to bring up the GPU driver on the newer kernel. Alternatively, you can consider to bring up the ICS system on the top of the Gingerbread kernel - I managed to get ICS working on GB kernel. Also, on ICS the default color model for the screen changed to RGBA8888, which your graphics drivers/HAL has to support. There are some ways to change the color model to RGB565, but it may create some graphics artifacts.
Another area where you may expect some porting task is the porting of the multimedia codecs and you need to consider that ICS is more memory hungry than GB.
