Thanks. Also just found this on their blog: “Anonymous users can upload maps up to 100 KB in size to the service for conversion.” Some of my bigger Freeplane .mm files do go over 100KB, so I guess this would prevent me from uploading those.
In any case, their Chrome browser and Google Drive integration is very good, when one is working across different platforms.

In the meantime MindMup have also launched what they call “MindMup Desktop” (beta), although actually it is a ‘standalone’ Chrome app (i.e. you need Chrome to be installed for it to run). But it does work offline, and it also allows multiple maps to be open.

MindMup seems to have just introduced outline export in a number of formats:
“Create Markdown, Word/Google Writer and Text document outlines easily”

MindMup have just introduced a vertical (top-down, org-chart style) orientation, as an additional view.
It would have been interesting if it could be reversed as a bottom-up hierarchy, just like you can turn a right-aligned mind map into a left-aligned one, by dragging the nodes. Unfortunately that’s not the case. But it’s still a nice new option to have, for yet another visualisation possibility.

One thing that’s annoying about MindMup 2.0 (I don’t know if this is a feature or a bug) is that if you are working on a MindMup file saved to Google Drive, it will not longer allow you to attach images from your local drive or even the rest of Google Drive but defaults to Google Photos.
However, I don’t want to add photos to my MindMup nodes, only small 16x16 pixels icons (e.g. ticks for “Done” or exclamation mark for “Attention”). Yet Google Drive makes it difficult to add those kinds of image files to Google Photos, and even if I manage to circumvent that somehow and attach the icons finally, MindMup 2.0 gets the scaling wrong and renders them as too big and pixelated.
This all worked just fine in MindMup 1.0. :(
