I don't see your point exactly, but here is my current position:
- freemind 0.9.0 will come into debian again if the license situation
clarifies (there are still some issues, not on FreeMind itself but on
dependencies, specifically xsdlib).
- before this happens, some dependencies need to come into Debian as well
(simplyhtml, jibx, xsd2jibx + some dependencies of those dependencies,
i.e. xsdlib and a few others).

This takes all time, so just be patient.

2 additional notes:
- beta versions may have a file format that won't be supported in the
future, so that I'm not keen to make it too easily available to too many
persons.
- if you can't wait, you can check freemind.sf.net -> FreeMind on Linux
for how to install version 0.8.0. The package is also from me but can't
make it to Debian for license reasons.

Cheers, Eric
