I open this thread for a listing of related databases. Here is a cool
one
called "multi-tree" (thanks to Dennis for pointing it out):

A description is found here:

The actual database is found here:

http://www.meertens.knaw.nl/sand/zoeken/index.php

I have not really played around with it yet.

Here is a netword of dialect databases:

http://www.dialectsyntax.org/index.php

There is a real issue of the relationship between
our project and these projects.I guess the issue is
something like this:

These projects explore micro-variation within structures that
are particular to one or a few languages (e.g., verb clusters). Should
properties
representing all this variation be found in our database. The vast
majority of
these properties would simply be NA (not applicable)
for the vast majority of languages.

A topic for discussion.
