Hi Pavel,

Yes, FreeBSD 10 is still the target. We are working to make it in to the tree. 
You should see some traction next week.

Thanks,
Abhishek

So, is it going to be included in FreeBSD 10 now? As I can see code
freeze for CURRENT is planned on 7 September 2013 (10 days from now).

It's not much time.
