I am planning to attempt a port, however I'm very new to kernel
development/FreeBSD and would not feel right about accepting hardware for a
project I'm not sure I have the skills to finish.

To that end I'll be buying boards on release date, but would be interested in
working with anyone else who is attempting it.
