I had a look a while ago and got to the conclusion that for code readability and maintenance, it would be better to do major refactoring for all os-related code. The very bad news is that I just realised that I did this in the svn checkout of the code (it was a while ago) and I removed it without backing-up a diff before cloning the new git repository when GNOME switched to git. I am therefore not able to provide my dirty patches :-/. AFAICR, it has been somewhat trivial to have the code working on FreeBSD, but because 1) the hack was ugly and 2) sshfs (at least in this use case) is problem-prone (if I recall correctly, I had to manually umount sshfs mounts a couple of times in order to launch Tomboy again) I never pushed this in the BSD# repos. Please tell me if you can take care of this and contribute a patch. If not, I might find a little time for a workaround by the end of the month but can't promise anything. A nice solution would be do the refactoring required to make Tomboy OS-agnostic and cope with FreeBSD and GNU/Linux and provide the ability to add extended support for other operating systems and merge it upstream. It's currently low in my TODO-list but if there is much demand for this I might reconsider scheduling it with a higher priority. Thanks!
