Thanks, and good gaming!

Yes, they have. The Fiend Folio, the Planar Handbook, and the (not published by Wizards) Creature Collection 2, for example, contains info that updates those list.

However, the Planar Handbook advise that, for balance reason, a spellcaster's summon list should not be lengthened. Creatures from outside the MM1 should be swapped with creatures on the standard summon list, rather than added.

Which is a great idea because the lawful good cleric or conjurer won't be summoning a breaded devil anytime soon.
