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.
