Hi Martin,
The solution is to either roll your own ReaderWriter for you custom
format (which is very easy just look at the osg plugin), or to get the
appropriate ReaderWriter from the Registry and then do s call to
readerwriter->supportExtension("myextension","my description of my
format");
There is no need to add any further complexity to the OSG.
