Can people please add their ideas to tasks.html instead of posting
them to this thread? Potential gsoc students won't find those ideas
here in a few weeks time if they don't look hard enough.

Many good ideas have been proposed. But please don't expect others
to add your ideas to tasks.html. Just do it! Takes only 5 minutes.

Thanks,
Stefan
