With the next DBpedia release, we are going to release a graphical
user interface to edit infobox mappings. We hope this will further
increase contributions from the community. You can already have a look
at the documentation and some screen shots:

This list is great! I still see huge potential for DBpedia in creating
new mappings for infoboxes. As your list shows, a big amount of
infoboxes is not mapped onto the ontology yet. For all this data,
there is therefore no *high quality* data in the /ontology/ namespace,
but only raw data in the /property/ namespace which is of much lower
quality.

I am not aware of one.


Best,
