Precompiled binary for freebsd - snake - 04-13-2017

Hi, I am a big fan of xonotic, and I have a suggestion, Why not create a binary package for freebsd just as it exists for windows and linux?
Xonotic works very fine in freebsd, It's in ports and binary package repository "pkg install xonotic", but then I depend on updating that binary to have the latest version, it would be a good idea to recompile it with the necessary patches for it to work in freebsd also and include it in the .zip of the latest version.
Thanks you.

Hey snake, welcome to the forums.  It sounds like a lot of the work to provide a binary is there, but I personally don't know much about using free BSD as a desktop, I've added a feature request to the tracker on your behalf.
