Tracking logs of multimedia/webcamd, it was originally submitted by
hselasky@ [1], and the upstream was always his repo.
After he passed away, we lost not only the maintainer, but also
the upstream, too.
Hans Petters repo is still present until now:
https://github.com/hselasky/webcamd
Maybe the best way would be forking from current master site and keep
on doing what Hans Petter did for updating.
Unfortunately, I'm not the one who is possible to do so.

Hello,
I've found some PRs about it:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=webcamd&list_id=685477
And I'm looking for a well maintained port since I will need to use web
conferencing soon.
I will install it this weekend and see how it goes.
Thanks,

Hello all,
multimedia/webcamd port and upstream is unmaintained and I'm looking for
similar programs but at same time worried about the future of webcamd.
Any help on this matter?
Yeah the situation is really sad but nonetheless webcamd is working fine
even with the
DVB-S2 tuners I have. We probably need to update it to a newer kernel in
the future but
the v4l stuff in the linux kernel is quite mature and does not change that
fast.
Do you have any specific problem with webcamd you are facing?
