With the help of Jesse Grosjean of Hog Bay Software, we have started a list of apps that support OPML.

http://opml.org/compatibleApps.opml

If you have comments or suggestions for the list, please post them in this thread.

Tinderbox is a note-taking tool that imports OPML and exports OPML (when used with the built-in export templates): http://www.eastgate.com/Tinderbox/

What's best for a link is if you have docs about how to get stuff in and out via OPML. In this context that's what people will care about.

Vienna, an RSS reader for MacOS also supports OPML

@ruurd -- I'm not doing this for RSS readers yet, because there are so many of them and basically they all read and write OPML.

But I want to try something interesting out there too. 😄

@SheetPlanner -- I added your product to the list.

One observation, There seems to be a significant lack of Linux apps on that list, which is a shame.

Also, a suggestion, would it be possible to add the licence type to the list, i.e. whether an app is proprietary or foss etc. then it might be easier to know which to investigate further with a view to forking and porting.

Just wanted to quickly note that OmniOutliner can also edit OPML natively, it’s not just an import/export format.

Thsnks @kc-omni -- I updated the entry for OmniOutliner.

@FrasSmith -- I don't think at this point any of the products have an open source license. Also there will be a Linux version of Electric Drummer hopefully soon, I just have to get around to testing it. :-)

FreshRSS is an open-source, self-hostable news aggregator (RSS / Atom / XPath), supporting OPML import/export, and also supporting publishing/subscribing to dynamic OPML (reading lists). It has an OPML XML namespace with a few additional properties.

@Alkarex -- we're only covering outliner editing software at this time. The list of feed products that support OPML would be much larger, given that it's a basic requirement in that category.

Infoqube (Windows) - imports and exports OPML.

Definitely Android Outliner by Alfred Fritz: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Alfred+Fritz&hl=en_US&gl=US

Outliner will sync with OPML several other systems.

I don't know if Natara Bonsai used OPML at its core but I seem to recall it was very OPML friendly. It is still with Android Outliner.
Natara Bonsai was good for Windows and Palm plus others) but seems gone now (some of us have installers but needed a license as I recall).

FeedCurator (GitHub), Mac App Store) allows creating and editing OPML feed files. It seems specifically geared toward working with listings of blog/podcast feeds.

Additionally, iThoughts and Little Outliner appear to no longer be available and could likely be removed from the list.
