If we say the conditioner basically authenticates or re-signs an asset from grid X to grid Y, and the refinery would make sure the physics of the object described by the asset is translated from the topology of grid X to the topology of grid Y, then this is basically what COLLADA expects in exchange. This exchange is this different from the usual import/export process. It doesn't have to be this exact process, as this is only an example to us be more familiar. It seems a complete waste to not realize that LL has implemented the import process and physics refinery into their browser, and this very feature, though not fully automated as such, could be used to help move assets in-between grids/v-worlds. Since the import is from local basis, the authentication is not implemented. What's to stop to basically export to DAE format on the local storage, from one world, and continue to import that DAE into another grid. Note that the refineries may be proprietary. They may produce non-COLLADA formats (from DAE files) that are for optimal render/display capability of the software "client" (i.e. that the end-user has to view graphics). As with Google Earth and Sony HOME, they already have their assets conditioned and refined for those virtual worlds such that they can optimally display them. The key note is not the optimal display, as it is about being able to exchange and use in other virtual worlds. The DAE format does have extensive abilities, yet the goal of COLLADA is still to define the basic material, scripts, model, etc in the most portable format. The DAE may contain hybrid or specific formats that is stored in the extensions, so that custom objects are retained/transferred. If virtual worlds start to not agree upon how they store objects, I see COLLADA as the default format for digital asset exchange. https://collada.org/mediawiki/index.php/COLLADA_FAQ#What_are_the_major_features_of_this_format.3F (Yes, we can put all inventory items in DAE format through the user-data and asset extensions, despite the format mainly being for 3D... just sayin') -- --- https://twitter.com/Dzonatas_Sol --- Web Development, Software Engineering, Virtual Reality, Consultant
