Maybe a master TODO list on the gnome web page for people 
who want to contribute, but don't know where to jump in?  
List a contact point (email) whom an interested volunteer 
should contact to with 

It's possible to check each package's TODO file independently,
but it might also be helpful to view all TODOs simultaneously...

Quick! I want to help, but don't know what to do! =)

Wait, i feel a script coming...

--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------
#!/bin/tcsh
# MakeTODO.cgi

echo '<html><head><title>Gnome TODO List</title></head><body>'
echo '<h1>Gnome TODO List</title></h1>'

for f in (*/TODO)
	echo '<hr><h2>' `dirname $f` '</h2>'
	echo '<pre>'
	cat $f
	echo '</pre>'
end

echo '<hr></body></html>'

--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------

MakeTODO > GnomeTODO.html

I'm too lazy to test it, so don't complain if it breaks.
Consider fixing it TODO item #1. =)
