Is there a reference card how to program GUIs for the Kindle Touch?
I wanted to play a bit with jbpatcher, but you said I should wait for the "new" version... how long will it take before you release something?
I'm looking forward to see some sourcecode.

Hallo Matthias,
you may be confusing two unrelated things here...
GUI programming for the Kindle Touch is pretty much the same as GUI programming for any other JVM. All Java constructs work, and pretty much all of the AWT and Swing classes of Java 1.4 are available as well now.
The jbpatch framework is an entirely different thing, and (at its core) is at a much deeper level. It's really all about understanding and modifying machine language. And It is most definitely NOT a tool to look at the Java UI only. You really, really, want to have some reverse engineering practice before you start with jbpatch.
I'm currently not releasing the newest jbpatch changes, for the simple reason that they are currently just breaking everything. There is a lot of reorganization going around, literally breaking pretty much all classes right now. They will eventually be reconciled, and the code will be committed. But at the moment, it's really a suicide commando.
That said, you are of course more than welcome to download the latest sources, and to experiment with them. Rest assured that v2 only impacts the "looks" of the patches, but not their "works". So far, I haven't changed a single line of the actual patch functionality.
