Tell me in what format you want the genealogy data. I have it in MySQL.

But that's no problem. Can you provide me with a one-time dump  (extract probably is NOT sufficient if done randomly, but could be time-based - birthday of the person in the database?) for now of the genealogy database? (what format are you using there? )
