emacs has org-mode built-in and org-mode is probably one of the older
mind mappers available for download.

Hi.. I can't remember if it was this year or last so we can pretend it
was this year that I stumbled upon the concept of "mindmapping" (mind
mapping). I just ran a quick "apt-cache search" on it and didn't see
much available when you use a single repository for Sid's packages. I
"endure"... some ongoing "circumstances" where that would have been
hugely beneficial for connecting the dots had I learned of the concept
five or six years ago.
No, I'm not using the concept this second, but FreeMind was one I did
specifically test drive a while back. Am not finding it under Sid just
this sec so not sure the where or how from the time I did download it.
+1 for mind mapping and FreeMind in particular. I use it to organise just
about everything. To-do lists become trees and searching goes from O(n) to
O(log(n)).
I must have installed freemind before jessie was released; I am on unstable
and am surprised to confirm that freemind has been removed from unstable and
replaced with freeplane:

Thanks, Cindy, for bringing this to my attention.
freemind from jessie works fine on unstable. I never noticed its removal. I
may try freeplane; I will add an item to my to-do mind map :-)
