I'm curious if they have it "figured out" now, such that a delay in the RDF dump will be unlikely in the future.

There's some recent upbeat comments from staff on the ODP forums to the effect that they've been working around hardware and resourcing problems, but they are now confident of success.

That's a pretty good sign, as is getting out the intermediate RDF.
