Hi Peter,

I usually point people to a post I wrote one and a half year ago:

http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q1/2

Keep in mind that some things changed since then. If I recall correctly,
the TODO file doesn't have the "Done" line anymore and some issues are
now tracked on GitHub:

https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues

There's also secwiki.org which covers some Nmap documentation, including
"Script ideas" page:

https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap/Script_Ideas

Let us know more about what you would find most interesting and perhaps
I could help you a bit.

Cheers,
d33tah
