This is a long discussion.
Some people, e.g. Bastien, think that "contrib" should be discontinued (my
interpretation, hopefully faithful) in favor or GELPA or maybe Org-ELPA.
Others, e.g. me, like to have "batteries included". This means keeping as
much as possible in, preferably, "lisp", or at least "contrib".
As such, the best outcome would be if Vaidheeswaran/Jamuthuan would
maintain it in "lisp". My understanding is that there is no issues on the
FSF/copyright side. I don’t know what the opinion of the Org developers
are, though.
In this case, moving ox-freemind to GELPA might be the path of least
resistance. As such, it seems like a good solution.
