PPro/FCP: AAF (Advanced Authoring Format)
When I started using PPro I found the lack of EDL export frustrating and limiting. I didn't realize that AAF is supposed to replace both EDL's and OMF. There's a lot of interresting stuff at the official AAF Association website. It's nice to see that Adobe is one of the key companies behind it.

After all; EDL's where created to be used in digibeta tape-to-tape suites. We're past that and AAF is a much more flexible format that can hold a lot more information then just in and out points and dupe reel/dissolves.
