So you'd be comfortable with removing the experimental warning
for SearchIO in Biopython 1.62 final (this week if the PDB occupancy
thing is resolved)?

And you would like to officially support plain text BLAST parsing
(despite it not being recommend by the NCBI, and known to have
been quite a lot of work in the past to keep the parser working)?

We should probably also give you (Bow) commit rights too, so you
can handle basic parser updates within SearchIO directly - assuming
you're happy with that?
