With "proprietary" I meant the Blender-fileformat, not your tool :-)
Btw ... if you are familar with the .blend-fileformat now - how about
writing a specification? ;-)))

Does this mean the Blender fileformat switched to XML or is it still a
proprietary (and totally undocumented) format and only your add-on
allowes
it in save in XML?
Blender fileformat hasn't changed at all, and actually i don't have a
clue
about how
to read .blend files, but i don't think its necessary, cause the greatest
blender power
resides (IMHO) in its scripting abilities, and in fact there are really a
lot of I/O scripts
out there.
Blend2java is NOT proprietary.
The xml file is the result of new java serialization method ( try to work
with XMLEncode
, look at the xml output and you'll find the same syntax )
So, in the end, take a look at blend2java source (both export.py and java
routines) , it's
Open Source... :)
And in my
opinion every additional export-tool would be nice but not a good
solution
if it isn't shipped together with the blender package.
I totally disagree about that!!! hehe :-)
