Again, I was on the message you mentioned. I was the person Ariel was responding too. I have been in touch with Ariel in the past, but he not responded to any emails from me or others for almost three weeks about the situation. Problems in Greece, on holiday, real-life, ...?
Last month, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and others were never completed.
I use over 40 languages, not just enwiki. The one's that didn't finish are useless for the majority of people. It takes two weeks to dump all languages except for enwiki and only one has started in 18 days. By "started", I mean re-started a pre-existing dump to completion. No new dump has commenced in over a month. For many languages (French, German, etc) it has been two months. Things are dead.
Does anybody know how to get dumps working who's name isn't Ariel?

Hello,
I apologize if I was not clear enough. The dumps are being run manually because Ariel is currently testing the new framework. It is thus to be expected if the dumps are not being produced according to schedule. Also, I believe the enwiki dump is still being produced, so I doubt that the process is "dead", it's just slow.
Perhaps Ariel is able to provide more information on this issue, as I am unable to comment further than this.

I did mention that dumps are now run manually. I was on the message you mentioned. Only one dump has started in the last 18 days, this is in addition to larger languages never completing. Going from two dumps a month to no dumps a month is not a "delay", it is dead.

Hope this helps.

Three months ago, "they" changed the way dumps are done. "They" wanted stubs for every language done first and work on the rest of the dump later.
Old way: Two dumps a month for all languages except enwiki. A new dump was started when one completed. Except for larger languages, dumps were done in under a day.
New way: One dump a month for majority of languages. Dumps have to be started manually. All dumps take 2-4 weeks to complete.
Last month, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and others were never completed.
It's about to be August 5. No dumps have started this month. Only one dump has started in over two weeks.
Does anybody know how to get dumps working again.
