The Adventure Game Studio engine has been open sourced. It would be nice to have it available (at least for legacy games) as part of ScummVM, so it can benefit from our platform support.
There's an existing unfinished partially-rewritten(!) engine for ScummVM (see [[AGS]]) which is missing some core functionality (such as save/load code) but already allows you to complete some AGS games. Adding save/load functionality (not trivial) and implementing some of the other missing code would get it to a point where it could be merged into the main codebase.
