* Use Javascript to improve the downloads page, by only showing the most important ports/downloads by default, and then uncovering the rest upon a click by the user (with gracious fallback if Javascript is disabled). A first draft of something like this can be seen on http://fredrik_w.users.sourceforge.net/downloads/
* Change all screenshot filenames to match our rules as described [[Screenshots|here]]. E.g. rename <code>data/screenshots/agos/simon/scummvm_2_4_0.jpg</code> to <code>data/screenshots/agos/simon/simon-0.jpg</code> etc.; also some stuff should maybe be moved to other directories.

* Get rid of getenv in as many places as possible. Ideally, we'd only use it to query HOME on Unix systems.

==== Algorithm / String ====
* Implement a std::replace like function in common/algorithm.h http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/replace
* Implement String::replace in Common::String http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string/replace
==== Iterator handling ====
* Implement proper reverse_iterators for Common::List. Our current implementation is the same as forward iterators, just that rbegin will return the last element instead of the first and there is no rend. Check [http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/ReverseIterator.html SGI Documentation] for proper description of revese_iterator in the STL.

* Right now, the WinCE and the Symbian backend subclasses the regular SDL backend. They both overload a lot of methods (mostly the graphics stuff). Since graphics.cpp uses the scalers (e.g. hq3x), these derived backends carry that baggage around, too, even though they don't need that code. Idea: split the SDL backend into two classes, one base class which only has the code which is used by all subclasses; and a "desktop" subclass, which implements the rest. Then WinCE/Symbian would only subclass the "base" SDL class.

* Improve the code in <code>backends/platform/wince/CEScaler.cpp</code>, it could be a lot faster with some simple changes.
