The math formulas feature was completed on Tuesday, so the German dump has to be recreated to contain math formulas. As the need for dumps increases, we should perhaps think about some infrastructure for distributed creation of dumps, at least for the languages with large Wikipedias. Also the server hosting the dumps is slowly running out of harddisk space...

So if someone wants to contribute to some kind of dump farm, please contact me.
