A quick look on the "BioPerl moved to git" announcement
(http://news.open-bio.org/news/2010/05/bioperl-has-moved-to-github/) you
can find the following link:
http://github.com/bioperl/bioperl-live/archives/master

This page gives links to a zip and a tar version of BioPerl's master
repository, which seems to be what you want.

Cheers,
Kai
