TrueOS.org is FreeBSD-current (yes, a rolling release) plus the latest 
video driver work that is not in -current plus some other things like 
LibreSSL.  It worked on a Core M Broadwell tablet, but I have not really 
tested it thoroughly.  It is supports Skylake, but my only Skylake 
machine has a Radeon board and is running plain -current.

This was formerly called PC-BSD, but it has changed name and design 
lately.
