Yes, that seems to do the job! (http://wikindx.sourceforge.net/ )
We could install it in a server, and begin filling it in...
I suppose we can add fields, such as keywords, ratings, and so on, to
help out get nice lists out of the database, as Francis suggests...

one option would be the server http://complexity.vub.ac.be , which is
an iMac on CLEA's ground floor running on MacOS X... as a starter...
but if later we could convince with it other departments of the VUB of
its usefulness, it could expand... I am sure that something like that
nicely tailored would be appreciated by any department.
