#62A Linux mobile operating system (i.e. revive Mer & Maemo). PostmarketOS is trying this, but they would benefit immensely from the above 2 getting tons of help as they are basically dead.
There is also The Librem 5 from Purism, they finished the fundraising and posting updates regularly

#63I wanna say Compiz, but I feel like I am the only one using it full time. It would probably be a wast of time.

#64Apache Wave ( former Google Wave ). But without the mentality of "replacing email for good, now!" baby steps, embrace and suffocate this time...
Seconded, It seemed really cool and had a great mission.

#65I'd like to see Abiword come back to life. Even adding docx saving support would go a long way.

#68I would like hot corners on Linux, but all the programs that I find seem to be abandoned. https://github.com/brianhsu/xfce4-hotcorner-plugin looks most promising, but it needs updating to work with current XFCE.
KDE supports them by default, if I'm remembering correctly. If not default it's in settings.
Cinnamon supports them out of the box as well, it's System Settings -> Preferences -> Hot Corners. I had to run the Brightside daemon to get it working on MATE, but I don't know if that's true anymore.

#69FreeMind - http://freemind.sourceforge.net
Still by far the best knowledge management software out there, but is down to one developer working on it part time and it hasn't received a proper update in years.
