civicspace, civicspace, civicspace and freemind

Ever since CivicSpace released 0.8.1rc1, most of the time at work and a fair amount of the time when I was around a computer at home have been spent testing and debugging CivicSpace. I found several issue with the upgrade process and several needed improvements to the new event module. It also appears that the new theme, groundswell, will be a lot easier to customize so hopefully re-implementing the look that the PSU webdesign course came up with won't be too painful.

From everything I have dug into, CivicSpace 0.8.1 looks like a wonderful release, but to make this even nicer I have been working with a guy in France who has written a drupal module that will generate a freemind file from the taxonomy and associated nodes (with the node teaser). This module hasn't been checked into drupal cvs yet and it still needs a little work but I can say is it generates a valid freemind.mm file. I haven't been able to get icons to display, but I haven't really tried that hard either.
