I think that's a good start.
It would be good if every developer subscribed to this list could give a short 
feedback on each game on that list. Even nicer would be to get this feedback 
from users also :).

I can right away give a little comment on ksokoban :).
Conserning gameplay all seems "almost" ok, but its code...
It's full of low-level C-style stuff like char*, some weird hashes, C-arrays 
etc-etc.
I liked the coolo's joke "Ksokoban is as old as QPopupMenu" :).
Btw, coolo said that maybe we should consider removing ksokoban and readding 
it as long as someone decides to hack on it to bring it's codebase into 
shape.
That maybe an option, but, well, it's playable and hasn't very much bugs (at 
least on a first glance), so I think that maybe removing isn't strictly 
necessary if someone (maybe that'll be me) can work on porting/improving it.
Btw, recently I tried to replace some old-fashioned C-arrays in one of the its 
classes with Qt's QByteArray and I ended up with modifying a rather large 
piece of code which appeared to be tightly coupled :).
