For the record, I *LOVE* the original page [1] and it is now one of three pinned tabs on my browser. However, the data is getting stale. The expanded version proposed by Sudip would be great but, in the meantime, would it be possible to script a periodic update of the current page? > > I made a python script which saves the information in a sqlite > database and that same script can search for a class or can list the > classes in a package.

I find Sudip's script to create, update, and search a local sqlite database quite useful. We could make the script available to developers who want to use it locally; it doesn't even need to be packaged in my opinion - we simply make the script available in a repo on Salsa. It seems like it could also be used to build the sqlite backend for a web version. It just needs a machine with a little bit of horsepower and access to a mirror (or a caching proxy). Cheers, tony
