Dear all,

by chance, I came across another glossary that I used to work with a few  
years ago, the Online Glossary of Linguistic Terms under  
http://www.uni-erfurt.de/sprachwissenschaft/forschung/. Unfortunately,  
their database is offline at the moment, but I contacted the site owners  
whether they will bring it back online.

Best,
Christian
