I still do think it is worth the effort to keep it in the tree, for
study purposes and for the fact that not everybody uses XML formatted output
yet. ;-)

Proposals are due by May 8, 2006 13:00 PDT. Proposals made before
this period may get comments and permit you to update to reflect
feedback on what you submitted.

Subject: Python Software Foundation seeks mentors and students
for Google Summer of Code
This spring and summer, Google will again provide stipends
for students (18+, undergraduate thru PhD programs) to write
new open-source code.
The Python Software Foundation (PSF)
http://www.python.org/psf/
will again act as a sponsoring organization in Google's Summer of Code,
matching mentors and projects benefiting Python and Python users.
Projects can include work on the core Python language, programmer
utilities, libraries, packages, frameworks related to Python, or
other Python implementations like Jython, PyPy, or IronPython.
Please add your project ideas to the existing set at
http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode
Mentoring instructions are also on this page. The deadline is soon,
so please sign up as a mentor early. If you are a student
considering a project, you should start deciding now. Feel free
to ask questions on python-dev@xxxxxxxxxx
The main page for the Summer of Code is
http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html
At the bottom are links to StudentFAQ, MentorFAQ, and TermsOfService. The
first two have the timeline. Note that student applications are due
between May 1, 17:00 PST and May 8, 17:00 PST.
People interested in mentoring a student though PSF are encouraged to
contact me, Neal Norwitz at nnorwitz@xxxxxxxxxx People unknown to Guido
or myself should find a couple of people known within the Python community
who are willing to act as references.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting
many new mentors and students. Let's improve Python!

While I agree that nobody is using XML output by default (I also use
text or HTML output), I think people will use the XML output if they
BLAST knowing that they will parse it using Biopython. So I think that
text parser should stay in Biopython, but examples in documentation
should be in XML.
