AOKP’s first Milestone, the first stable build based on Jelly Bean, was released in April 2013. It came with nightly builds created automatically by the AOKP BuildBot every 4 days. At that time, user downloads of the Android Open Kang Project were exceeding 1,000,000, this being another milestone for the company. We’re happy it’s been going so well until now, AOKP being exceeded for now only by CM10.1 platform. Be sure to download it from the site above (it’s trustful) and let us know how things are working out for you and your smartphone.
