FreeBSD 12+ Universal Forwarder

Hi all,

I've noticed that the last Universal Forwarder for FreeBSD available is for 11.3 but FreeBSD is now up to 13.0.

I know that FreeBSD is a bit of a dying space except in appliances where tools exist to manage log output as syslog on those appliances, ie pfsense, opnsense, Truenas, etc. 

Can I reasonably assume then that there is not likely to be any new versions of the Universal Forwarder to support later versions of FreeBSD for this reason, ie FreeBSD is only showing up in appliances that can do syslog forwarding?
