Webcamd future

Hello,

I was appointed as maintainer of webcamd, and I realize the situation is 
a bit complicated on the human side of things as the original author 
passed away and he was an important member of the community. I hope to 
be able to respect his work moving things forward.


The upstream project is now unmaintained and we apply patches as port 
files but this is not a good situation.

The webcamd project is very important to FreeBSD on the desktop and I 
think it deserve to be maintained properly.

While I am quite confident in C, I am ignorent of USB stack and linux 
kernel so I don't feel like I am the best person to write significant 
changes to the project. But I think I can manage patches and hope the 
project will stay stable.

The project is on an unmaintained github repository and will need to be 
forked.

I would prefer to put the project outside of github and under a common 
control (under a foundation organization or something).

So I am wondering if freebsd has such umbrella where we could put the 
proect.

Best regards
