Importing articulated models from Maya 7.0

Hey guys,

I love me some modeling, and I've figured out how to export meshes to the *.ase format and gotten some of my 3D work into Alice, but I'm completely baffled as to how to get an articulated character exported properly.

If you have any advice or tutorials, please help. I'd like to add to the library of models for this program.

Thanks!
