Speaking of which; Jimbo, we really need to have a periodically produced database dump tarball available.
Hey, I just noticed that there *is* a database dump available now at http://www.wikipedia.com/tarballs/ (as of March 21)! Awesome, thanks!
However, the old usemod database has vanished from there. Since the old edit histories aren't merged in yet, this is a problem... (There are still a few articles left that got damaged by bugs in the conversion script, and it would be nice to be able to restore them.) I dug around my hard drive and found a saved copy that seems to go up to December 20; is there a more recent one still available?
