   Would you believe that I have already done this?  the INDEX file in
   sunsite.unc.edu's mirror of prep (/pub/gnu) contains what you are looking
   for. In a couple of cases, its a few decimal places behind in version
   number (I wrote it a couple of months ago and haven't updated it since).

   If somebody in charge likes, I can donate my list to prep as well.

Could Hanche volunteer to keep this list current?  Should take no time
at all!
