The new object structure was designed to build on the existing WordNet
structure, while also adding in all of the data that we get from other sources.
More information about this can be found on the project wiki.
The generator has already been completely rewritten to generate a
datafile that uses the new structure. In addition, a number of indexes
are created, which does double the size of the datafile, but also allows
for much faster lookups. Finally, the new generator is written modularly
and is a lot more readable than the old one.
The verbly interface to the new object structure has mostly been
completed, but has not been tested fully. There is a completely new
search API which utilizes a lot of operator overloading; documentation
on how to use it should go up at some point.
Token processing and verb frames are currently unimplemented. Source for
these have been left in the repository for now.

In addition:
- Added prepositions.
- Rewrote a lot of the query interface. It now, for a lot of relationships, supports nested AND, OR, and NOT logic.
- Rewrote the token class. It is now a union-like class instead of being polymorphic, which means smart pointers are no longer necessary.
- Querying with regards to word derivation has been temporarily removed.
- Sentinel values are now supported for all word types.
- The VerbNet data retrieved from http://verbs.colorado.edu/~mpalmer/projects/verbnet/downloads.html was found to not be perfectly satisfactory in some regards, especially regarding adjective phrases. A patch file is now included in the repository describing the changes made to the VerbNet v3.2 download for the canonical verbly datafile.
