Are there any reasons why you didn't extend the existing cloud-init to support 
FreeBSD? Now there are three different cloud-init projects floating around (for 
Windows, FreeBSD and Linux) which IMHO is suboptimal.
FYI, there's a current merge proposal to add initial FreeBSD support to 
cloud-init: https://code.launchpad.net/~harm-o/cloud-init/freebsd/+merge/198130
