Is there any way I can contribute to the project? Is there a list of code janitor/housekeeping issues that need to be addressed?

I think automated tests would be really useful. Right now if you make any changes, you'll likely break some of the hundreds (or thousands?) of games in obscure ways. Tests could be
1. Unit or module tests using e.g., Google Test framework.
2. Emulated tests that you run in Dosbox that test DOS and hardware functionality and emulation performance.
3. Acceptance tests that run games in Dosbox and check that they don't crash, produce correct audio and video etc.
