I regularly test Tcl/Tk, and several other extensions on FreeBSD. I am 
the one behind tc...@Fr..., and I maintain a lot of Tcl/Tk-related 
ports on FreeBSD.

I don't qualify as "At least two developers committing to development 
and testing for that item", but I think as long as I'm around, we can 
consider FreeBSD as "tested".

As for CI, there's https://cirrus-ci.com/ which offers FreeBSD platforms 
and can be integrated in GitHub, or we could use 
https://github.com/vmactions/freebsd-vm/. Happy to help out setting that 
up.
