I've thought about this (as an outsider who doesn't know anything) and wondered if plain old git would do the job. I've heard Germany already does this, but when I looked at https://github.com/bundestag/gesetze it didn't look like this was representative of what I would assume to be the full extent of German legislation.
In theory, you probably wouldn't find lobbyists contributing directly, but you could find representatives and then link them to lobbyists they've associated with.

Where to find datasets that involve legislation, legal rulings and policy proposals?
I'm not aware of any national / international group that puts all of that together offhand. I don't know if other jurisdictions do this, but Washington DC uses git for their laws and other associated documents. https://github.com/DCCouncil/dc-law-xml
