What we do right now in DBpedia Live is that we have a local clone of
Wikipedia that get's in sync using the OAIRepository extension. This is
done to abuse our local copy as we please.
The local copy also publishes updates with OAI-PMH that we use to get the
list of modified page ids. Once we get the page ids, we use the normal
mediawiki api to fetch the actual page content.
So, feature 47714 should not be a problem in our case since we don't need
the data serialized directly from OAI-PMH
Cheers,
Dimitris
