If you go to the download page and click on a data set, you get some 
information (or scroll to the bottom of the page):
http://wiki.dbpedia.org/Downloads35

To see whether data sets have changed compared to previous releases, you 
can go to http://downloads.dbpedia.org/ and compare different releases.

Please note that within the last year the extraction framework was 
rewritten and the live extraction was implemented. It's difficult to 
improve all aspects of DBpedia within a short timeframe and most 
interlinking data sets were never designed for long term maintenance, 
but rather one time efforts. (Anyone is invited to contribute mapping 
code to DBpedia, of course, to improve the situation.)

Kind regards,

Jens
