<div dir="ltr">Sorry to hear, John. While I'm not ops, is there anything I can help with to get your immediate need filled? What would you do with the dump? Is labsdb a good alternative or do you already have scripts? Do you use <a href="http://dumps.wikimedia.org/">http://dumps.wikimedia.org/</a> ? Are the dumps you need not there? I know that site's experiencing some rate limiting but that's simply a budget issue.<div><br></div><div>I'm on the analytics team and one of my goals is to make datasets and raw data publicly available, so I appreciate your perspective and I'm sorry in advance if I can't help.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 11:23 PM, John <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:phoenixoverride@gmail.com" target="_blank">phoenixoverride@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>I am looking at a ticket filed almost two years ago for labs to support the -latest format that the toolserver had, and guess what?
