AFAIK FreeS/WAN development has stopped.
openswan is the successor of Super FreeS/WAN based on FreeS/WAN 1.x for the
openswan 1.x series and 2.x for openswan 2.x. series.
StrongSwan is another fork based on FreeS/WAN 2.x.

It is confusing, and maybe I'm confused totally - but after Bering(-uClibc)
supported Super-FreeS/WAN a long time it's natural to me to go with openswan.

correct me if I'm wrong

Can't prove you wrong, I just feel further development in the cert/crypto sector is mostly driven by Andreas Steffen, who accidentally lives close by and is IMHO extremely knowledgeable on xxSwan (and very helpful), being the developer of the X..509 and other patches.
