I don't want to restart this rather long (but very interesting) topic, but I'd like to point out / remind people that a couple of well-placed fires could wipe out most of wikipedia et al. as we currently know it - surely the first priority, before thinking about the real long term, is to sort that out? Remember the Library of Alexandria...
The new dumps are progressing very well. Presumably when they're done we can give the Internet Archive and any similar archivists a yell.
The private parts of the database are probably more valuable than the public ones, though.
