I also have a converter that takes OFF files and converts them to the
simple file format we're currently using; eventually, I may write something
to read the OFF files directly.  OFF was chosen partly because there are a
number of objects available on the net in this format, and because there
exists at least one converter that takes another format (TDDD) and converts
it to OFF.

I would encourage people using other formats to standardize on OFF, to make
object-sharing easier.
