Hi John, The .osg and .ive formats don't have a documented specification, the source code implements both the read and the write and is effectively it's own definition. As Ulrich mentions both are internal formats not meant for data interchange with 3rd party tools.
In svn/trunk there is support for scene graph serializers and with a family of new native file formats that deprecate .ive and .osg file formats. These few file formats are the .osgt (text/ascii), .osgb (binary) and .osgx (xml), and all based are new scheme for serializing properties of scene graph elements, the new serializers also support reading/writing of the schema used for serializing. The new schema isn't yet complete enough to aid writing of 3rd party reader/writers, but once it matures a bit further it should serve this requirement quite well - the schema will be our formalized documentation of the file format.
