Well for contacting an individual you could always just have the
database forward a message from a form to its internally stored email
addresses so it never actually reveals it (maybe an option to those
registering, otherwise it could be displayed in some spam harvester
un-friendly manner). And for location info, just a city/country would be
sufficient for travelers to know if the person is in an accessible
location and doesn't really give away too much info :)

Anyone remember the project mentioned on LAD before about an online
Linux Audio tech database? Cheers.
