I had emailed Ximian about this back in March in anticipation of Gnome
1.4... Mark Gordon of Ximian informed me that while there had been some
investigation on Ximian's part into supporting FreeBSD, "[he didn't]
know that anything ha[d] been decided firmly yet." He also said that if
Ximian did come to support FreeBSD for GNOME 1.4 it would not be
immediately.
