SPI doesn't seek out projects, rather projects request association
with SPI. If one of the free/libre open source BSD Unix based
operating systems sought association with SPI, we wouldn't reject it
on the basis that it's "not Linux" (note that most of our associated
projects aren't operating systems at all, much less GNU/Linux
distributions).
The process by which a project can request association with SPI is
documented here:
https://www.spi-inc.org/projects/associated-project-howto/
To my knowledge, the reason no BSDs are associated with SPI is that
none have asked to be.
