There’s a new single pane outliner in the Win8 App Store called Mind Outliner by Alphalina. It seems pretty decent and notably can open and export to OPML. It has various themes and item formatting is available. It also has inline notes and checkboxes.
It’s still version 1.1 and has yet to include hoisting and columns and the other desirable features, but for $4.99, it’s still a decent app.

Thanks for the heads up. After searching, I see that the company name is “Aphaline”:

Thanks. Good to see a new single-pane outliner with inline notes, as there are so few of them. It looks though as designed with a tablet in mind. What does it look like on a desktop?

I see that Aphalina is a daughter company of Perpetuum Software, which is part of Enterra Inc, which seems to be a Russian company with 60 software developers and an international presence. That’s seems to be a different profile from the usual one-man bands and micro-companies that tend to develop outliner software, doesn’t it? Could this be the start of a new trend? Biggish software houses trying to come to terms with the new MS strategy (and the demise of the PC) and starting to develop software for individual consumers?

I don’t believe that Alphalina makes a separate desktop version. I emailed them and suggested that they introduce themselves here to talk about Mind Outliner. Their company makes a few other products, as well.
