Hi

Thank you Nemo for adverting that interesting page about how to improve Wikimedia dumping processes. This topic is of course a primary concern for the Kiwix developer team.

Here my contribution:
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_MediaWiki_Core_Team%2FBacklog%2FImprove_dumps&diff=1417187&oldid=1415717

Hope to see things going forward on this, I will help as much as I can.

Regards
Emmanuel

The MediaWiki Core team has opened a discussion about getting more
involved in and maybe redoing the dumps infrastructure.  A good starting
point is to understand how folks use the dumps already or want to use
them but can't, and some questions about that are listed here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_MediaWiki_Core_Team/Backlog/Improve_dumps

I've added some notes but please go weigh in.  Don't be shy about what
you do/what you need, this is the time to get it all on the table.

Ariel
