I wonder why they didn't just jump on the Raspberry Pi bandwagon and build on top of that. Call it FreedomPi.

"Regardless of whether you are using our target DreamPlug hardware, a laptop, or a large rack server somewhere. As you read this packages should already be available in the Raspbian repositories"

I know what you're saying though. I think this project was conceived long before the pi became a reality.

You're correct in that. Raspberry Pi was not around back then. Eben Moglen had a talk in the beginning of 2011, if I'm not mistaken that seems to have set this effort off.

One would think that given that there are just a few packages being developed, they could change mid-stream to use the Pi.

Just saying.
