Members can already do so on the Members Register - the question of whether 
such data should be accessible to non-members/web spiders is up to the person 
concerned.

For those who want to make such data public, you could always create a page on 
the Wiki to host some information. That could also form a method of collating 
the data in a simple, cohesive manner.

Keeping details current is going to be impossible unless it is the individuals 
concerned who maintain their own data, so the existing options are better 
than me creating a static / database page that has to have a separate update 
mechanism.

Wasn't that the idea behind the Members Register??!
