May 1, 2025

May 2025 (Informatievlaanderen/data.vlaanderen.be2) – Primary focus was stabilizing data exports and ensuring correct archival naming for the standaardtype dataset. Delivered a precise bug fix that aligns the dumpname configuration with the dataset semantics, resulting in the correct filename: standaardtype.ttl.gz. This improves data processing reliability, lineage, and archival integrity across pipelines. No new features were released this month; improvements were focused on quality and correctness of data exports. Impact: Reduces downstream processing errors, prevents mislabeling and manual remediation, and speeds up data ingestion and archival workflows. Technical notes: The fix is tracked in commit 2323175c5544501acddce4a18fa7743364ab61a5 with message 'fix dumpname'.
