When I check out my own gateway, it looks like this:

Code:
Address 19: CAN Gateway (J533)       Labels:| 3Q0-907-530-V1.clb
   Part No SW: 3Q0 907 530 AA    HW: 3Q0 907 530 C
   Component: GW MQB High   518 5366

The GVL, the Gateway Verbau Liste is just the installation list, that allows you to check all the addresses to all modules that are installed.
My curiosity was triggered by this:

GVL: 01DE3C0008000600C0DC80000006CC0010040000000200000000000000000000
Installed:
01 02 03 05 08 09 10 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 22 2B 36 3C 42 44 47 4B 52 5F 65 69 6C 6D A5 BB BC CA CF D6 D7

It looks like some hexadecimal code, and I was hoping it could let me compare my car to other cars, especially with submodules moving over all the time.
Just the other day I discovered the 5Q1 slip ring doesn't live on 0x16 anymore but is now a subsystem of the BCM. And I heard rumors it's coded via gateway.
This drives me crazy and I need answers. Luckily I'm fluent in hexadecial and my excel skills are sharp as a blunt knife.

looking at some differences, i'm guessing...
04 bit 3 might be 14 suspension electronics
08 bit 7 could then be 18 aux heater
09 bit 7 might be 36 seat memory
....
21 bit 1 might be D6/D7 or CF (D6/D7 are often sub modules of 4B/55 in ODIS land) so I'm guessing CF

Did anyone make a more comprehensive list about this and is willing to share?

You're missing an important point: The complete installation list isn't all in the Gateway anymore. They've done some really inelegant stuff with what I'll call "sub GVLs" in other modules. :(

VCDS fishes them out and presents the user with a single, combined list.
