The last database dump was made 18 days ago. Brion does this normally once a week and he is on another assignement till tomorrow.
Does this mean that Wikipeia loses 18 days of edits if a diskcrash occurs, or are there other backups as well? If SQl dumps are all we have, would it not be better to schedule an automatic dump each night? Or does this bring Wikipedia to a halt for a prolonged time?
