Hmm, I've noticed commits in the past to change freebsd -> FreeBSD.

| olivleh1 at nudel ports> find . -name Makefile -exec grep -E \
| '^MAINTAINER=[^@]*@freebsd' {} \; | wc -l
|      306
| olivleh1 at nudel ports> find . -name Makefile -exec grep -E \
| '^MAINTAINER=[^@]*@FreeBSD' {} \; | wc -l
|     5284

FreeBSD.org is the correct way.
