They have a forum here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/forums/forum/758437

Have you tried that? If you have not tried it, it’s the best place to start. If you have already, and are getting no response, let me know, and I’ll send them your email address and questions.

I think that at present FreeMind and Freeplane use the same format, though there’s no guarantee it will stay that way. You could try my conversion pages here for that information:
http://www.mind-mapping.org/interoperability-of-mind-mapping-software/
and assume that what these pages say for FreeMind applies to Freeplane.

Hello Vic! How it’s possible to ask questions about Freeplane? A have ones. For example:

- how to convert Freeplane’s MM-files to other popular formats?

- is this possible to run Freeplane as a server side software to execute it as an applet via a web site?

Perhaps, you could redirect my questions to developers.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for this fair and balanced post, Vic.

It should be noted that credit for the new architecture goes to Dimitry Polivaev, who is also the project administrator on Sourceforge.

It’s true, we still need to explain what makes Freeplane unique. At the moment we’re concentrating on producing a stable release. Users can tell us what they think on our forums.

People may like to give FreeMind a try, too.
