I would like there to be a code in which one can efficiently and easy-to-use-ly organize collections of data within defined domains, in a theory-independent fashion, but with advanced information and in a way amenable to database search. The Construction Labeling system, designed together with colleagues, is a step in this direction (see under Research -> Research Projects), and for annotation and databasing of examples, TypeCraft seems ideal.
