I've been working on a little project for about 4 months now. It's a revamp of a previous project. So what is it?
Spiral Knights Model Converter. You can see it here: https://github.com/XanthicDragon/Spiral-Knights-DAT-to-OBJ
You can read what it does there.

Before any of you go crazy about it being against TOS, the other thread has been sitting in General Discussion ever since the first release. The GM/Devs didn't bat an eye.
It complies with T.O.S. because of these words: "Open source". http://threerings.net/code
I am using my own code to read XMLs (Which they don't have any control over the format, since it's not theirs), and I'm using Clyde to read .DAT (Which is allowed).
If people are reading this they're reading general. My understanding, at least, is that the vast majority of people are at least skimming general since it is where most of the action happens. I do like your project, by the way. It'd be sweet if we could make stuff and submit it into the game.
