daniel added a comment. For the record: while I was proposing to have the dump "flavor" at the bottom of the hierarchy and putting the timestamp only into the filename, I'm coming around to the opposite view again: have the date at the base of the hierarchy.
Having the date as the base makes sense if we can make sure that all the dumps in that directory consistently reflect the state of the data at the given point in time. This is infamously untrue for the "standard" MediaWiki dumps. We could however make it true for our dumps by generating everything off a single JSON dump, as @mkroetzsch suggested. If we want to split our RDF output into several files (terms, sitelinks, statements, etc), this consistency is essential. I think we should go that route, so I filed a ticket for implementing a script for generating RDF from JSON: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T94019.
