Let's come back to the questions that I've asked please.

I would like to know if some FreeBSD developer is working on these
compatible chipset with the display with which I felt in love :

compatible = "brcm,bcm2835";
compatible = "goodix,gt911";

Can someone share some relevant information about some useful piece of
code,links,that I can explore to understand if it is worth investing my
time and money on that display ?
