| Abstract | ||
|
XML dumps are very important to the community as they provide a ready dataset for researchers, developers, & administrators who all use them in various manners. Sadly, the dumps as they currently run have grown past their initial design and are broken. We can no longer say that they will run with reliability, consistency and predictability. I'd like lead a presentation on the rework of our overall infrastructure and provide insights on what worked, what didn't and where we are at. | ||
