todo.html: init
I think it's important that people who are interested in contributing to Spectrum can find out what work needs doing without having to spend weeks in the IRC channel trying to figure out what's going on. To that end, The List. I intend to list here everything that needs doing that I feel doesn't need too much context that only exists in my head. I listed the few things I could think of in the moment to get started, but I'm sure it'll grow as I remember more things that need doing!
