Hi,

I have a question for developers.. Is the format used for game (player/team/league) data known? Could it be made public?

Motivation:
Through FHM Twitter account I found out that 10 leagues should be playable by default. I guess it's not more of them because of lack of data about the other leagues. I would like to contribute by researching those leagues either by helping to create some sort of plugin/addon or by helping to get those data directly to the game.
If I'd know the format used for storing/importing such data I could start with the research and the others would hopefully join. At least if it's easy to create such files e.g. in case that defined text format file can be used to import the data. Or if there exists a tool for editing the database and creating "patches" for it.

Thanks for your responses, ideas and recommendations!
