Summary: Is there a standard file format for patches?


Are there standard file formats for patch coefficients?
We have some home grown formats for Geometric and Algebraic (power)
basis patches.  B-Spline and Bezier seem to be very popular:
what file format is used to transfer patch information?
(IGES supports Algebraic format).

Please send information directly to me and I will summarize if
there are enough responses.
