This was said by John Goerzen, which does not belong to the Debian
GNU/FreeBSD project, and, in fact, is completely against people even
dedicating effort to it.

Basically, John Goerzen is just the kind of GPL fanatic FUD spreader
that makes a lot of people eye GPL with suspicion. In his messages I
have read ever single FUD about BSD I had ever read to date, and
some new. Fortunately, about everyone else disagrees with him. I
have read only a single person agree with him, and, then, only
partially.

So, basically, I don't think Mr. Goerzen is of any concern.
