Yup. There's already an xml based turn-based game format
called XGF, which is an xml-ization of SGF which is the
standard 2 player game format. http://www.red-bean.com/sgf/xml/
XGF is in pre-alpha, and the author told me they don't
have time to work on it.  Gtkboard will need some extensions
to XGF functionality but it shouldn't be a problem because
of its extensible nature. We'll also support the file
formats of friends & competitors (gridlock, zillions).

Feel like starting on a parser or output module for XGF? :)
