Hey, I'd really like to get the patches on the above ticket committed so
that I can create a subdirectory for the ThinkPad Keyboard Layout files that
I added to ticket http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8021. There are 8 of them
so the need for a subdirectory is even more dire than for the Apple Aluminum
layout files.
Thank you,
