I doubt anyone's done that, at least so far.
The general idea is to group together apps that have a common theme, etc.
I'm just poking harmless fun, but do you have more than 16 apps of the same type or function?

I do. I was annoyed at this limitation earlier today when I tried to group games for my 3yr old together.
this was the very reason why I downloaded the source. One would think enabling this would be easy. Someone tell me how to compile only the launcher. Compiling the entire source takes me over 5 hours.

Step 1: Take a hammer & smash your Android Device.
Step 2: On your PC desktop, right click & choose make a new folder, store as many "infinit" aka infinite apps as you wish.
WHY would you have more than 16 apps that have the same function? Kind of redundant/retarded don't you think???

Solution:
Use the first 2 dock spaces for 16 games a piece, then use the other two spaces for your own stuff.
I'm sure this will come in time, or buy your kid a Nintendo DS...

You guys sure you're in the right forum? The "suck it up and deal with it" attitude belongs in the iOS forums, this is Android. In Android we don't ask "why?" but "why not?"
BTW: An actual temporary fix to the problem is to use Folder Organizer.
You could also use simi folder temporarily. Free in the market. I am sure there are other alternatives, too.

Its for his kid. And diferrent people have different needs. You should take that hammer and smash your own head.

To build the Launcher from source, use: make Launcher2 to build the generic Launcher. To build it for a specific device (i.e. to incorporate device-specific settings and overlays), you should run lunch and select your device before running make. The path to locate the APK will be specified on the last line.
I've never tried to build the Launcher without precompiling the rest of the source prior to, so I don't know if it needs to build some additional components beforehand, which would add some more time for the initial build, but far less than doing the whole system. Make sure to sign your APK to match the rest of your system before pushing.
Hope that helps.
Edit:
The maximum number of folder items is defined by: res/values/config.xml (for those building from source) or res/values/integers.xml (if decompiling) in Launcher2.apk. The integer values for folder_max_count_x, folder_max_count_y, and folder_max_num_items define the maximum number of items permitted in the folder, where the value defined in x multiplied by y equals the value in max_num_items.
I modified the y and max_num_items values and I was able to include more than the default 16 icons, but...
The folder does not include scrolling capability, so once the number of items exceeds the available screen space, they are cut off. If it's possible to incorporate scrolling into folders, we're good to go, but that's beyond my capacity...

Yes, please search a bit even on google to read about the difference.
Basically put the Android OS loads up system apps in two stages. Odex files and APK's. Part of the information for the app is stored in the ODEX file and part in the APK.
This allows the OS to pre-load stuff if you will. Deodexing is putting/compiling the set of apps and framework stuff so that each one is back into a single file instead of two.
You could I guess in theory theme in the parts but that's really complex because you don't know whats in what. Which is why putting everything back into one file makes it easy to theme, customize etc.
Hope that helps you out. This is a freebie, search next time xD you won't be a noob that way.

As far as I know you need a kernel that allows you to step over 1ghz and this is most likely stock kernel since we don't have source for it...

To answer the overclock question until source for the kernel is released the onlyway to overclock is to use tegrak.

Couple of things, if you put in addons like zedge and ADW plese put them in /data/apps not /system/apps, since this makes it a pain to uninstall/remove.
secondly, include a file manager, i hate having to install a file manager to install my file manager. 3rd include the Email.apk, i dont understand this latest trend towards removing that, it's rather important and fair amount of us use exchange, again it's a pain to put back and no i don't want to use the other **** email programs from the market

I will highly consider this however i will most likely optimize the pngs to make it smaller and it will probably end up on the sd card for quick removal by those whome that don't want to use it and prefer one from the market.I will however suggest to you if you have not already try k9 mail it is by far the best email app on the market and provides all the functionality plus customization options.
To Answer your question on the file manager i am currently working through and evaluating a few which i consider the best and will be releasing one with version 2.0 which will be optimized and then included in the rom.
The last thing you brought up was the placement of the included app's.I will also in version 2.0 happily move those to the sd card.
Thank you for your suggestions, and i hope you are enjoying my rom regardless of these slight inconveniences you have experienced.

This has been on my mind for a little while now and I've been waiting for either Google or CM team to make it happen but...So anw have anyone ever thought that it would be awesome if we can have folders within folders ? Sure the idea of creating folders to store a specific category of apps has been around across multiple mobile OS platforms, but personally I haven't seen one that would let us users create one or more folders inside that initially created folder. It would be great if CM team, or heck Google can put this into Android. We would be another step ahead of iOCrap.
The reason they didn't is because how many folders within fillers would you want? Put too many and it overflows the system. Probably the reason why it isn't there yet. A lack of demand is another possible reason. It isn't as low level as file system, which has this. This would be running in java vm then in an app.

Folders within folders is something programmers have been able to do since DOS. Probably before that. There is NO technical reason why it would be impossible.

I did not say it was impossible. I stated some possible reasons why it has not been implemented. This "folder" is on a higher application level than it is on a file system. Therefore out would take more resources, albeit probably not a whole lot.

Hey,
So I'm very busy with fixing Touchwiz 4, from XXKQE. I also modified the dock, now can you add 5 icons in it. This topic is just for the development state.
If you guys have requests just leave it here in this topic.
Sounds good maybe you can turn CrapWiz into TouchWiz ^^
Like the resources very much...

i prefer a fixed touchwizlauncher 4, no modified.

i have tried to change the libs. took the libs from a modified touchwizlauncher 4 from xxjw4 for i9000 but nothing happens. everything works as before
i think we must look for a working touchwizlauncher 4 without bugs on other devices and we can take them libs.
maybe the libs makes the issues in icon placement storage.
maybe someone can make a flashble cwm package with this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883&highlight=sgs2

Indeed, you learn best by doing it yourself! I guess you are trying to learn how to make apps yourself? If this is your first experience with creating apps, you might want to start from the very beginning. That way you can really learn how to make something from scratch. there are plenty of great tutorials out there, who'll also make you understand the way apps are working behind the scenes (the states apps can be in, the way android and dalvik vm handles them).
Anyway, good luck experimenting and learning

@Tomajdon I guess you mean in the app drawer? Just open the app drawer, hit the 'menu-key' and select 'edit' (in whatever language). Now you can move app-icons around so you can rearrange everything.

No I mean that I have 6 pages and for example on page six i have 2 icons only. But if i move that two icon to page 5 and i clear my ram or tap to advanced task killer and clear the apps my two icons from 5 page go back to page 6... So i can not move my icons because when i clear m y ram my icons set back to default... And this annoys me very much. So if you aolved this problem please upload that fix i would be pleaseful.

there wouldn't be any integration at the code level. If I understand the OP correctly, all he's gonna do is open the compressed rom with something like 7zip and replace stock apps with go apps.
If that's what you're planning on doing, a word of warning, you might get a lot of FC's at startup, I tried doing that on an older device and that's what happened.
Good luck.
P.S. I also use GoLauncher, GoNotifications, GoBackup, GoCalander, GoKeyboard, and GoWeather
