I have been working on the design aspects of the COLLADA Conversion implementation. My primary goal at this point is to create an overall structure of where I want to go, before beginning actual coding on the 28th. I have constructed a basic (very basic) class diagram. I probably should've created a Use Case Diagram first, but I feel this would be somewhat of a waste of time, as I already am familiar with what the system should do, and how it should interact with the user. In the case of a use case diagram for the library, this might be useful, but I want to design one such that it exhibits the traits necessary for the first iteration. The basic class diagram is attached. The XMLFile class, as well as the Translator (basic class) will more than likely be replaced by iDocument and iDocumentNode classes, which are already present in the CS codebase. I just placed them in for now, so that I have a direction of where to proceed and what I need to implement.

Additionally, I will be looking into researching how the iDocument interfaces work, and how to use them in my implementation, in the next day or two.
