Source and CMake files are:
CMakeLists.txt
ReaderWriterBVH.cpp
Also there are 3 example BVH files. The first two are captured from motions of human beings - maybe a kung-fu master here. PLEASE use command below to see the results:
# osgviewer example1.bvh -O solids
This will demonstrate the animating of a skeleton and render bones as solid boxes. Note that the motion assumes XOZ is the ground and has an offset from the center, so we should adjust our view to get best effects.
You may also use "-O contours" to render bones as lines. The viewer shows nothing if without any options because osgAnimation::Bone does not render itself. User may add customized models to each named bones as osganimationskinning does to make uses of this plugin in their own applications.
I was wondering to support a BvhNode in my osgModeling peoject before, but soon found it better be a plugin for animation. A problem is, how to bind real geometry models to the skeleton. Maybe we could have a bindingToNode() visitor in future to find geodes matching names of bones and add them as bones' children."
The plug-in is a wrapper around open-exr (http://www.openexr.com) that consists of two projects, ilmbase-1.0.1 and openexr-1.6.1.
I have only tested it on windows XP 32 machine. So there might be some work making it work on other platforms.
The plug-in supports writing and reading EXR files. When writing it can use the data type GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB(se ilmbase-1.0.1) and GL_FLOAT. When reading the data type always becomes GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB. It supports textures with three and four channels.
When reading an exr file it automatically removes Alfa channel if it didn't store any information."

From Robert Osfield, started work on ported it to other platforms, but could fix some problems relating to error:
?Imf::OStream::OStream(const Imf::OStream&)? is private
I'm checking in now so that others can have a bash at completing the port.
Standard is to generate one stl file.
With an additional option it is possible to write one file per Geode. This option is not very "useful" for typical application, I use it for separating and conversion of geometric data. So it could be removed if considered to special."
New features
+Read and write of osg::LOD, osg::Switch, osgSim::Sequence, osgim::MultiSwitch and osgSim::DOFTransform data in <extra>
+Read and write of osg::Node description data in <extra>
+Plugin option "NoExtras" to prevent writing of <extra> data and only traverse the active children when saving
Changes/additions
+instanced_geometry and instanced_controller are now loaded in a single Geode with multiple Geometries instead of multiple geodes with a single Geometry
+Changed all calls to the deprecated createAndPlace() to the new add() methods
+All transformation elements <scale>, <rotate>, <translate>, <lookat>, <matrix>, <skew> are now concatenated properly in to a single MatrixTransform.
Previously this was not done in order as required by Collada and and not all elements were included.
+Complete skew matrix creation
+Automatically add GL_RESCALE_NORMAL if scale is non-identity
+Blinn shininess remapping to [0,128] when in range [0,1]
+Changes to CMake file to make it compile on Windows
+Coding style and code documentation
Bug fixes
+Transparent texture writing fixed
+Fixed bug in using osg node name as collada node ID
+Fixed usage of double sided faces in GOOGLEEARTH extra
+Not adding blendfunc and blendcolor when opaque
TODO/Wishlist
-solve differences in drawables, DAE reader should place multiple collation elements into multiple primitivesets in a single geometry where possible (only when same material)
-solve differences in matrices
-multitexture support
-skinned mesh and generic animations using osgAnimation
-profile_GLSL based on COLLADA OpenGL Effects Viewer http://ati.amd.com/developer/rendermonkey/downloads.html
-handling more <extra> to more closely mimic the intended lighting"
The set up for this to work is a bit more complex than most files, since the engine expects all files to be in a certain place, and it tends to mix case a lot. I tried to explain everything in the VBSP_README.txt file."
This plugin has been integrated with the pre-exisiting bsp plugin.
After taking a look at the current state of the BMP loader I decided it might be worth a shot at reimplementing that part. For example: the current loader doesn't properly handle 1- and 4-bit files, incorrectly loads 16-bit files as intensity-alpha (they are RGB555), is full of dead code, and generally not in very good shape.
Attached is my re-implementation for review.
I've checked it against the test images from http://wvnvaxa.wvnet.edu/vmswww/bmp.html and models that use BMP files.
