Why does everyone always lob for OBJ. Its a crap foramat to use, unless there is no other option. User FBX it comes with every version of maya and will allow models to go from one version of maya to another forwards and backwards.

I've thought of a site vs site before, but the difference in participation is pretty great... we may have 1 or 2 or maybe no entries from SL while we have 7+ for SM

I just wanted to add that I would be up for a Collaboration Thread and think it would be benificial in a number of ways.
Anyone can always message me too if they have a problem and I would be happy to answer if I can.
