We can do better than that. For several years now, David Sturm has been
coordinating the efforts of the KLI's Extended Corpus Project (ECP). In
addition to being the only project that doesn't have the word "Klingon" in the
title, the ECP is an attempt to compile an ongoing annotated list of
noncanonical Klingon, that is, Klingon from sources such as Pocket Books' STAR
TREK fiction.
I'm expecting David at the qep'a' next week, and we'll be going over the current
state of the project. With a bit of luck, we'll be posting a set of pages from
the project to the website in the very near future.
