New standalone build, new XML format

I did not touch the standalone version yet. But I can imagine it can be a time saver for animations.
But, is there a way it can be used on a local render farm?

I get the differences in colors because of different noise seed and probably multimap seed as well. But there's something strange going on with metallic materials, as they seem to shine a bit more in standalone :|

Tried it with Joel's 1.9.4DEV render_corona addon from the blenderartists forum,not fully supported yet but it's working.
Though I got an issue of long GI computation inside Blender, using command line and rendering the scenes generated by Blender
works perfectly.

Anyone tried?
