Hi,
during the summer I've worked on making dumps of page and revision
information for Wikimedia wikis incremental [1].
This includes both server (faster updating of dumps) and client
(download only changes since last dump) sides.
The project was successful, though there remain some issues that have
to be fixed before this goes into production [2].
I've had fun working on this, and I plan to continue with that, as time permits.
I would like to thank to my mentors, to Tyler Romeo, and especially to
Ariel T. Glenn for being there for me.
