.. then: * test out pkgng on FreeBSD-9.x and provide as much feedback as you can; * help test out massive deployment, upgrade and auditing scenarios - exactly the kinds of things which cloud using people need. Installing 10000 boxes is difficult. Auditing, upgrading and integrating services on 10,000 boxes.. much more difficult. * help out with the cloud provision-y service things that FreeBSD is missing - for example, get the vmware vmdk installer stuff be part of the install/release system - so people _can_ easily build FreeBSD VMDK's as appliance/cloud images. * integrate it with Puppet and other configuration/monitoring/management frameworks. Upgrade that integration to whatever counts as Tier-1 in those projects. I bet they focus on Linux only.
There's a whole lot of useful work that doesn't at all leave the userland. If you'd like to see FreeBSD in "the cloud", these are the things you need to address.
