The new NCBI blastall binary has an XML results output option. This makes 
all that messy
parsing of human readable blast reports go away :) Right now I'm 
concentrating on some
very specific blast-on-large-linux-farms stuff which won't help BioPerl but 
perhaps in the future I can
volunteer to help out with making BioPerl play nicely with XML formatted 
blast results (and bioxml.org).
