My feelings here are pretty much the same -- I'm skeptical about the continued
ability to maintain PicoBSD outside CVS in a long-term way, given tight
integration with the source tree. People can and do maintain there own
versions of FreeBSD releases and wrappers (FreeSBIE is presumably the most
successful example), but it's a lot of work, and if there's trouble finding
enough hands for the current PicoBSD, it doesn't seem likely it will get more
hands somewhere else.
