Since the GNU Boot project doesn't want to force any of its
contributors to test with nonfree distributions or operating systems,
we can't review the accuracy of the BSD pages, and there are no GNU
Boot users who already use BSD systems that contacted the GNU Boot
project.
So the solution here is instead to document the current project
decisions, to point to freedom reviews of the BSD operating systems by
the GNU project, and to convert the articles to refer to what
Libreboot stated about BSD systems, while taking the point of view of
GNU Boot.
Since Libreboot already very strongly discouraged the use of GRUB to
boot encrypted BSD systems, users using BSD systems probably have
followed this advice or were aware of it, so this enables us to remove
support for BSD encryption inside GRUB without the need to try to
directly contact users.
Still, as I plan to try to do that (to reduce GRUB's size for
computers with 512KiB flash size), it's still a good idea good idea to
document it inside the page as well to explain why, according to GNU
Boot (and not LibreBoot) it is a good idea not to rely on GRUB images
for booting encrypted BSD systems.
