Timelines of Soviet-Nazi communications after commencement of Operation Barbarosa

One aspect of WW2 that is fascinating but understudied is the extent of all the communications between the Soviets and Nazis following the German invasion. I think it could be a useful contribution of this forum to catalog and organize all of these communications. I know of no archive of this information, so I think it would be useful for historical study.
