Hi Chris,

My email to the NCBI on 17 May had a reply from Tao Tao (NCBI User
services) saying it would be brought to their developers' attention.

For reference, the email subject line was:
"Multiple iteration blocks per query in FASTA vs FASTA BLAST XML"

I have just emailed back to enquire if there is any news to report.

Peter
