Effectively, I am not too lucky with the Open-JDK on one of my
notebook. I must kill the ibus daemon (I learn Japanese), else I lose
keyboard input in the Freemind window.

On the same machine, I tried freeplane beta 1.2, and the CPU cycle rose
to 100%. I don't know if the proprietary Java JRE would fix these
issues? I only use Freemind as Java application

It is fixed in the F-16 package

Wouldn't be better to orphan FM, and package FP instead? There must be
good reasons if this fork has happened. When I look at the FM bugs & the
feature requests on sourceforge, there is little feedback, for what I
could read.

It's only a question. I don't know the about the FM dev. team. I have
only tried both applications, I read both wiki, and I read the FP user
feedback, it looks overly good.

I see, so unless you "like it better" for any reason, freeplane is not
coming in the F-repository. I have looked at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package. It's above
my competence.

As someone else pointed out in another reply, there is a FP rpm package
for OpenSuse. Are the OpenSuse packages compatible with Fedora?
