I think this project has the appeal of being in direct connection to the needs in the field. Teachers from Uruguay, Peru and Panama have asked for such a tool, and have been exploring alternatives that may not be the best: drawing in Paint, using the connectors in Etoys, executing a java app (CMaps) inside the X Activity or using web apps. Happens that a pygtk application for mind mapping already exists and its architecture makes for an easy port to sugar. It's called Labyrinth [0] and was proposed more than one year ago by Jim Gettys [1] though no resources were allocated. Recently, teachers in the olpc-sur mailing lists asked again for it [2] and I gave a quick (2 hours) try to sugarize it with some success [3].
