Please do not top-post :-)

There's no "port" for this piece of software, and their "simplified
installation guide" from [1] mentions a binary Linux installer.

A binary Linux installer is not going to work for FreeBSD, so I'll have
a look at their "advanced unix installation guide" from [2],

but porting a big piece of software like this is probably going to
require at least a moderate amount of effort.  If our Ports team doesn't
have people experienced with project-open, would you be interested in
working with them and maintain the "project-open" port?
