Okay, I quickly threw something together at
<URL:http://www.iwi.uni-sb.de/angeli/misc/auctex/web/download.html>.
This will have to be streamlined in order to present the information
you mentioned above in a more structured way.  But what you can see on
the page should already give an impression of where it is heading.

We could also add a section about Mac OS.  But for me it is a bit
difficult to gather the needed information about Emacsen (there are
currently a lot of flavors floating around), TeX systems (gwTeX?),
viewers (TeXniscope?), and similar.  Input on that is appreciated.

11.55 is doing a pretty good job in this respect.
