The -xml option is similar to the -l option: it prints all of the 
information in a ClassAd, but in ClassAdXML instead of the old format.

The -format option is nice, because you get just the information you want, 
but it won't be in XML.

If you find it convenient to use the XML, that's a fine option for the two 
commands that support it (condor_q and condor_status).

Warning: although the XML format is fairly stable, I can't guarantee that 
it won't change the in the future.

Condor 6.6.0 uses a subset of the ClassAdXML format described here:

It does not use nested ClassAds or lists, and you won't find the time 
attributes anywhere either.
