Looking at that XML I'm guessing it will be hard to reverse engineer
without a real rig to verify against.
But if there is specs on the format it should be relatively easy.

 Hey guys -

 I mentioned this a while back  if this list allows attachments, I'll
 attach a Kessler XML file.

 It looks like rather than baking out a keyframe for every frame, it's
 describing curves.

 In any event, it's beyond my abilities to pull anything useful to
 Softimage out of it.  This is a favor project again for the show Film Riot,
 so if anyone wants to take a crack at this file, feel free.

 It might be nice if Softimage is the first package to have a plug-in that
 can read this data anyway.

I think I posted that information and I'm afraid it won't be very helpful.
I can get in contact with Kessler's lead software engineer again and ask
him for a spec sheet or something akin.

 track it down and repost it.

 You'd think Kessler would ship this thing with the ability to output
 something useful - at least for things like Nuke  Fusion.
