What I had in mind was a location where - in a first phase - a full and 
complete bibliography (including translations) of all authors can be 
found, concentrating on the primary literature first. 

For Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse, Benjamin, Fromm and Loewenthal archives
now exist; all of these archives work with PC's; most could be persuaded,
if the interest were there, to make full texts available on a Webb site. 
(The Horkheimer, Adorno, Benjamin archives are right here in Frankfurt,
as far as the others are concerned I'm not sure) [Habermas is a separate
issue.] It would be in accordance with a general trend, which is to make
important philosophical texts available on the Internet. 

Listserv: I agree, in view of this existing one I see no need of an 
additional one.
