Exchanging mind maps with Mindomo

This is one entry in Vic's collection of information about how mind mapping software can communicate. Some packages have a built-in capability to import and export to other types of mind mapping software. Some software authors have kindly provided information about the format of their mind map or interchange files.

This is a starting point, from which this go-to source for interchange information, already substantial, will grow. Let me know about any new information, or any mistakes you spot: Vic at the above domain.

Mind mapping software:

Mindomo

Mindomo does not use a proprietary format, it uses (and can therefore import and export)
the MindManager map file format and can import FreeMind mind map files. Mindomo can
therefore interchange maps with any other software that can import or export from or to
MindManager or export FreeMind files.

Can accept files from:

Directly:

FreeMind (.mm) and MindManager 5, 6 or 7 (.mmap).

Indirectly:

All software that can export a FreeMind mind map file (.mm), namely 3D Topicscape,
Comapping, Mind42, and WiseMapping. Also Mind42 because that
can export a MindManager (.mmap) file.

Can prepare files to be read by:

MindManager and any other mind mapping software that can read a MindManager mind
map file (.mmap), namely, 3D Topicscape, Comapping, MindMeister and Mind42, all
of which can import a MindManager (.mmap) file.

XML schema or file format description file:

The FreeMind schema that Mindomo imports is available from freemind.xsd on Sourceforge
and there's a local copy here.

Here is the link to the MindManager 6 XML Schema on the MindJet site. Two key documents
are held as local copies that can be downloaded here: Mindjet MindManager Application
Schema.doc and Mindjet MindManager Application Schema.mmap
