Yes, that IS of interest! And we're already trying to put all information
we have in the Database. For example, there's a file called
"Gerstein.story-index", which lists all published and unpublished stories
written by David. I made the file simply because David gave us the
information. So if you (or Dave, or Gianfranco, or...) have story codes of
stories you wrote, I'd be happy to make a Lustig.story-index,
Rawson.story-index et cetera.

Most of the information in those indexes can be generated automatically
from the Database, if we continue indexing all Disney issues in the world.

At least one person is interested (me). And if you send your data to me,
I'll make it available as a part of the Disney comics Database (actually,
Per makes the files avaiable, but I produce the files and send them to him).

I plan to release a next version of the Database next week, right before
I go on a 3-week holiday.

BTW, currently, the "Lustig.story-index" would contain the following
(reprint information omitted):

The "Rawson.story-index" is not that big either:
