CyanogenMod is Dead as of 31/12/2016 but the code of CyanogenMod has gave birth to Lineage OS and its just a branding change with few tweaks and not to worry as soon there will be lot of Official ROM builds for many devices and it work pretty much the same as CyanogenMod if not better.
So CyanogenMod dead ha! So when will we get the Lineage OS for our devices?
Well we are not sure but there are developments happening to the source code of the phones and soon after that we expect them to build and announce the Official ROMS. But if you cant wait until then no problem! Developers are working round the clock to bring the experience to these devices and many devices have already gotten these. But the catch here is that it may not be complete or even stable,and maybe an half baked version plus these are Unofficial Versions.
Disclaimer:-This is an early build and may not be stable heck! it may not even boot. Have a complete backup before Flashing this. Try this at your own risk you could even brick your phone
