I seem to recall someone once asking about a complete list of playable races. Did anything ever come of that? Did it include source of race?

Nearly all races are playable with the correct level adjustment.
Look at this:

I've been looking for a non-level adjusted race with a bonus to charisma for a while. Does one such race exist?

I don't think so.
Try a half elf without diplomacy bonus but with a +2 charisma.

Er, yeah, don't exactly think those are equivalent. +2 cha is going to go straight into spellcasting ability or similar, not just talking to people.

As for +0LA race with a charisma bonus - there's Star Elves from Unapproachable East, but other than that nothing is springing to mind.

Dromite?

Edit: Whoops that says +1...I thought I read +0 in my XPH last night...

I looked through a good number of current WoTC books, and couldn't find any +0 LA races with bonuses to any mental stats. I was pretty pissed off by this.

If you're interested, here's the thread I started regarding the issue:

Where are the Mental Stat Bonuses?

There was an LA +0 template in Dragon magazine that granted a +2 Charisma bonus. It was called "Spark-born" or somesuch.

Gruwaar, from Dragon Mag, are a fey race and get +2 cha.

Another option would be to play a character that is middle-aged or older.
