We also did a small project with the webform.module, which allowed us to submit a healthy number of patches. A good amount were committed:
Hey, Morbus.... A year or so ago, I contributed a feature patch to webform.module that allows the outbound emails to include (parametrically) the value of any other field in their subject lines. This is very useful if you're sending the webform emails to an automated response system. In our case, we are using Request Tracker (RT) for trouble tickets, and the feature allows webform.module to append to existing tickets or create new ones with nice behavior. In other cases, you might use a procmail recipe or similar to auto-sort the webform emails based on the value of a field that appears in the subject line. Or it can just make the subject line more meaningful to a receiving human. :-) In any case, the code has been in production on our corporate site for a couple of years in Drupal 4.7 and 5.x. In the next month or so, I'll be porting it to Drupal 6.x, but that's not done yet. When I originally created the patch, I offered it as a contrib back into the project issues queue, but nobody ever responded yes or no as to whether there was interest. Is this something that would be of interest if I contrib it again for Drupal 6, or should I just consider this an "internal only" fork and keep it to myself?
