There are a number of outliners that support OPML; Opal is just one of them.

The recently-deceased PocketThinker (WIN) used opml.

ConnectedText also uses OPML in its outliner. It can read OPML files and export outline content to OPML.

A (more widely implemented) alternative to OPML are tabbed plain text outlines. Many outliners support them as do most mind mapping applications I’ve tried.
As to OPML, I am surprised at how few apps support it given its popularity in the web. (Eduardo, thanks for implementing it in Connected Text). I keep my to do list in a portable Symbian phone app with OPML as the main exchange format. Luckily ConceptDraw MindMap can read & write OPML (Mind Manager 7 can’t).
Cheers

Your comment, Alexander, reminds me that Brainstorm exports its models (or parts of models) as tabbed plain text. And now Personal Brain can import or export tabbed plain text outlines. Which means that information can easily be passed back and forth between Brainstorm and Personal Brain… almost a reason in itself to get PB.
