Any lists anywhere? I’m interested in when the faces were released.

What do you think of Global Type?

It has some good features, e.g. you can search for fonts released in, say, 1977.

I would be glad to help about Italy (and what I know).
Do you know the curators?

Yes, I do know them, but I am not involved in the project directly myself. The work is spear-headed by Lars Kähler in Lübeck. You can contact him via the e-mail address on this page here. I’m sure he’d love to hear from you!
