I haven't ever volunteered specifically, but some people know that I've worked on it. Unfortunately it's tough going lately, since I no longer have a "development" machine (and seem to have issues getting liquidated companies to pay me *grin*). I've got it to work previously, it's pretty arbitrary to do. It shouldn't take more than a few hours to get the basics going. The specifics get a bit more difficult, and it's quite a bit of manual work to get it to actually boot somewhat cleanly. I'm starting a new contract in two weeks, where I may have the resources to work on this (after some other FreeBSD-specific things the company is interested in - Hi Arri, Barry, Leon, &c.).
