It would be great if the TODO list was deleted IMV.
Choosing the right project is one of the hardest and most important
parts of successfully contributing to PostgreSQL. It's usually
essential to understand in detail why the thing that you're thinking
of working on doesn't already exist. The TODO list seems to suggest
almost the opposite, and as such is a trap for inexperienced hackers.
I don't entirely agree. It's a useful place to look for "are there other things related to the thing I'm contemplating doing" and "has anyone tried this? where did they get stuck?"
I'd rather rename it the "stuck, hard and abandoned projects list" ;)
