Hi,

1. When I try to use my own wiki-dump by defining it in

the DBpedia dump downloads the latest wiki-dumps from wikipedia and stores
it in a specific folder structure under 'dumpDir'.
if you want to use your dump you must place it under the proper folder.
you could let it download the default and then replace it with your.
(remember to enable only the languages you want, otherwise you will download
all language wikipedia dumps)

stores the extracted triples (according to the extractors you enabled) after
you successfully run the dump

i am not sure, but i don't think this is possible...
