This paper describes the implementation of finite-state based, high precision morphological tools for the generation and analysis of open word classes based on the inflection classes for German of the Open Lexicon Interchange Format (OLIF). Productive compounding and derivations are treated by simple word formation rules. The latter is constrained by selective frequency checks over the web and corpora. Minimal lexicographic requirements (only stem and a numeric inflectional code) allow simple expandability and define a morphological abstraction layer which existing finite state morphological systems do not exhibit. Although a lot of lexical information is freely available for end users over the web, the same is not true for resources which will be used in NLP applications. Therefore, we initiate an open and shared morphological OLIF-based resource where we integrate material from sources which allows for such a term of use.
