A little bit before the scheduled deployment of the 1.17 branch on our production servers, I will be halting production of XML dumps. Deployment is set for Tuesday Feb 8 at 07:00 UTC, so a few hours before that I'll start shutting down processes.
This is a precautionary measure; after the deployment and any hasty fixes that may be needed, I will be doing some testing to ensure that dumps are not impacted, before we restart them. Barring some bizarre problem, we should be back up and running within a day or two.
