The current freebsd-arm devs keep pointing out that nobody is
especially interested in maintaining or working on rpi* stuff at all. 
Why in the world would you be surprised that nobody is working on it?

If you want to run freebsd on arm hardware, try using hardware that
people are actually working to support.  If you must use crappy rpi
hardware, either run linux on it, or consider paying someone to do the
freebsd support you need.  Complaining that nobody will work for free
on hardware they hate working on is just... complaining.  Pointlessly.
