I'm not sure how good its documentation or how open it is. By reading
incomplete doc and looking through linux/android source code makes slower
development, sometimes waste of time, at least in my case.
In terms of tegra SoC, we have tegra code bits in src tree, however it
seems not complete.
On the other hand, definitely we should try to bring FreeBSD on newer ARM
boards, and it seems this board is fast, which could bring us some nice
possibilities like port/package buildings.
There may be exist some possibilities to build ports using qemu or some
other sort of emulation technics, however that doesn't mean we should stop
bringing new SoC/board supports.
Last but not least, we lack developers working on ARM platforms.
But all above is just my opinion, so correct me if I'm wrong here.

Ganbold
