Oh good - I was puzzled about that bit.

Setting record.annotations["sourceVersion"] = "2013_04" should do it.

(I'm assuming the odd QfO bit for the source value was a problem
copying text into the email).

If you are wondering, I've just been reading the source code for
the SeqXmlWriter class to see where it looks for fields:
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/blob/master/Bio/SeqIO/SeqXmlIO.py

It would be nice if someone was to summarise this mapping
in the module's help text (the docstrings).
