In case no one has yet noticed, http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20060402/ reports that the two largest parts of the latest enwiki dump have failed.
The next round of dumping has not yet been started, and at least one project is eagerly awaiting data from April.
Thanks,
Beland
Is it time to update the Lucene index? I am getting articles in search results on enwiki that were deleted in January.
(Specifically, when searching for "Aetherometry".)
Thanks,
Beland

Yep, I'll work this in to the dump process which I'm about to restart this evening with a more even size split. (The way a lot of larger wikis took a long time made it diffcult to get smaller, easier wikis done regularly.)

Awesome.
When is the next foundation fundraiser? How much will it cost to clone Brion? 8)

Are we planning on including his distinctive wit and irrational love of sharp implements in said clone?

Of course. I don't think there is any way to improve brion, especially not by leaving parts off!
best wishes,

No so sure about that. For example, it might be a great move to omit the requirement for sleep.

I'm splitting the dumps to four threads now, for huge/large/medium/small-size wikis each: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Brion_VIBBER/Dump_build_split
Currently just the small ones are running in Tampa while I test that it's all still working properly.
As a note: the langlinks and externallinks tables are now included as sql dumps. Some may find these useful or interesting.
externallinks has an el_index field which swaps the order of the components in the hostname, making it easier to count parent domains if one wants to make some aggregate listings.

Thanks Brion. I'm delighted you manage to remain as responsive as you do with so many responsibilities.

Also, in case no one has noticed, the dump process has been stalled on ruwiki for nearly a week, showing an ETA of 2006-04-10.
