From what I have heard it is more computer power that is the issue, since a single run appears to take a week.

The page at http://dmoz.org/rdf/tags.html will show you the status of the RDF dump as well as some of the reasons for the failure. Others are more complex and not detailed in the report.

Remember that the RDF dump is produced while people are still editing the database, so this is a non-trivial programing exercise. There are several reasons for the failure, but it is being looked at. As the dump takes a week, it means that it takes a week to find out if the latest correction did actually fix it or not.

This is being discussed at the highest levels. Due to legal reasons, it probably won't happen for a while however.
