What kind of list do you want, specifically?  It would be most
convenient to have a list of names of contributors (sorted by
last name), you need to know you have a CLA on file for.
Any ASF member can then fill in a Yes/No to whether there is a CLA
on file.

The new license should help a great deal.  I suggest you process patches
as they come in.  Make the contributor aware of the terms.  If you
prefer a CLA, because it feels safer, just note the names/email of
the contributor you accepted a patch from, but don't have a confirmed
CLA for yet.  What matters is if the code is covered at release time.

As for the CLA-handling.  There is work on the way to improve things.
But short term this isn't going to help you.
