Thanks for your interest! The project was part of GSoC last year already and
Oleksandr did make good progress with it but hasn't got it fully
working. Li-Wen Hsu
took over his work and fixed a few things and also put it on github:

https://github.com/lwhsu/freebsd-vboxfs

So right now the best technical contact is Li-Wen Hsu and I guess he
can also tell
you what is blocking progress right now and if it's still a viable GSoC project.
