hi Thorsten,

thanks for the hint, seems my org-mode is hopelessly outdated (from
emacs 24.3). 
However, I cannot find any *-freemind.el in
git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git, is that because it's non-free?
(in git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git, it is included as
contrib/lisp/ox-freemind.el, does the 'contrib' indicate non-free as
well...?)

Is ox-freemind.el derived (forked/copied) from org-freemind.el?
Is anyone currently actively developing ox-freemind.el?

Also: In order to build on the latest org-mode, can I just put
contrib/lisp and lisp/ from git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git master branch
in my load-path?

Thanks and Best Regards,
