The problem is that Logitech hasn't released the details on how to
communicate with the device.  There's not much anyone can do about
that.  I suspect the difficulty you'll have in getting the 'FreeBSD
team [to] do something about this' is that it's just not a very
interesting problem---there are other cameras around with open
specifications.  Certainly I gave up on the QuickCam in pretty short
order and just got another camera.
