If anyone has more information about planned BSD Unix ports to Raspberry

someone would let me know (perhaps with URIs or contact information for
people and projects working on this).
There was a discussion about it over on hackers@ last November. The
thread starts at
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2011-November/036742.html
TL;DR summary: some are wildly in favour of it, others are
completely negative. I.e. the usual network response to anything :-}
I'm curious about the reasoning for the negative. I'll have to go skim
that thread. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
The complaints seemed to center around a lack of docs, but I don't
think this is still relevant. The fact that several Linux variants
are ported suggests plenty of available doc. Also, there is a detailed
doc on the Broadcom chip on the RP website.
Now, if we could just actuall GET the silly things it would be nice :)
