Since is packed by Olea, why just ask for addition to fedora repositories?

As the maintainer of freemind, I also looked into packaging
freeplane
but I gave up since it adds a whole bunch of new deps. I didn't have
the time and motivation to add all those, just for a program which
basically does the same as freemind. I know that it does have some
additional features and is a bit better maintained, but this didn't
justify the additional workload for me.
This is also a result of the way Java projects ship their software
which makes it hard to use it in a way, we need it in fedora.
I know that there were some issues of freemind with regard to
exporting (which should be mostly fixed by now) and with the usage of
Japanese Letters or Signs, but this is more an upstream thing and
there is not much we could do about.
The only way freeplane is coming to fedora is that someone steps up
and does the required packaging work. (Note that I am also not really
a programmer and was also just an "end user" before I started working
on fedora) ;-)
