Hoi,
An incremental backup starts with a full backup. I think I remember that
they were in the process of getting such a process started.
Thanks,

I don't know about that. You may be thinking on dumps made using the
previous dump. Only new data is retrieved, but the result is a full
dump, too. There are also the new split dumps, but they aren't incremental.

With XML import / export that could be done quite

SQL you probably can limit entries at least of some tables (revision,
user, page). Though I am unsure, if it is possible to make incremental
dumps of all the tables - that would require SQL operations log, instead
of simple range inserts, probably.
It would require the new dump to delete previous entries: Pages deleted,
revisions oversighted, articles renamed...
