There is only one pending update in my CVS tree.  I have not started the
work to merge 0.5.9 since it will not be trivial, and as far as I know,
there is still no official PolicyKit release.  I had planned to start
looking at updating HAL for GNOME 2.22.  It really isn't a big deal to
have the version of HAL we have now.  It's not like upgrading to 0.5.9
will bring any real FreeBSD improvements.

However, if you have interest in additional porting to the FreeBSD
backend, let me know.  There is a need to develop a cpufreq addon that
ties into powerd.
