Research direction
Start by finding an outliner that supports OPML import and uses Markdown as its native format. Import the linked states.opml example into that app, save or export it as Markdown, and post the result in this issue; completion means documenting how the content and outline structure are represented.

Description
I understand that some outliners use an extended form of Markdown to save their outlines.
I'm interested in knowing exactly what this format is, because -- if it's easy to support as an export and import format in Drummer, then I want to do it. But first we have to understand what it is.
A good first step would be to do this:
-
Find an outliner that supports OPML import, whose native file format is Markdown.
-
Import our states.opml example into this app.
-
Save/export it as Markdown.
-
Post it here as a comment.
Why use states.opml? Because we know what's "content" and what's structure in the example. When I get an example where the text is about the format it's an example of, it gets confusing quickly. I know "Montana" and "Chicago" aren't part of the file structure. See how that works?
Everyone but silo-builders wins if our products interop.
