upower was actually ported by our xfce maintainer ;-) anyway, what they
(including me) do is fixing nitpicks with running GNOME on OpenBSD, sending
patches upstream, doing integration in the ports tree, doing regular updates
etc. OpenBSD has so far been quite up to date with GNOME releases (currently
have 2.32.x): http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/x11/gnome/#dirlist

Right now we're working on GNOME3 which is proving chalenging in various areas.
