Jaffa's patch to Hildon Application Manager replacing the long list of category buttons with a proper grid view was included in Diablo if I remember correctly.
Unfortunately, they did not include our patch to remove the legalese when installing something... I wonder why.

So it does count, too. Thank you. Guess that's what I need then, shouldn't be more than a side note.

There was another HAM patch by me which was merged (and, AFAICT, shipped) of no benefit to Maemo, but lots of benefit to Mer (i.e. it removed a whole lot of /home/user hardcoding).
Merging something which doesn't even benefit your own product, for Nokia, is impressive.

I'd like to point you to a great place for getting patches accepted. If you can reduce a developer's work in adding a patch, the better - Do it through maemo.gitorious.org 's merge requests.
Lately, javispedro's patch for inverted colors was added:
http://maemo.gitorious.org/fremantle..._requests/2248
And my patch for ARMv4t support/non-VFP support(!) in libosso: http://maemo.gitorious.org/fremantle..._requests/2249
Bootmenu hook in getbootstate

IIRC, in the past there were one or two solutions/patches/ideas that or came from community members but were eventually adopted by Nokia as part of the Maemo system. I'm almost sure I read about this in bugzilla or here in the forum... but I cannot remember at all what projects and how and which version of Maemo it was etc.
Anybody with a younger brain help me?
It would be enough to throw parts of your faint memories at me, maybe if I just get together enough keywords I can actually start to search.
