I acknowledge that the amount of work you guys have put into OpenCollada is significant and I am definitely pleased with this as an option. That being said I am beginning to warm up to what sergei is suggesting more and I am actually a collada user myself. Correct me if I am wrong but the way it works for autodesk these products by default ship with some crappy collada exporter that someone within the castle of autodesk has authored. Then as an alternative option you guys made OpenCollada plugins available for Maya and 3dsmax from your website correct? So when you think about it is there really any harm in Blender shipping with a "crappy" collada exporter of its own, like autodesk, and then having the option of downloading an OpenCollada blugin for Blender from an off-site location as well (Possibly even your site)? And Juan no offense intended here I am just making a comparison. I am not saying your code is literally crappy!
