There's been no progress here yet, but there will be in some time.
You can get the tool from http://ostenfeld.dtu.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/
and it support RAID-0 resizing, but not yet RAID-5. Feel free to add
RAID-5 functionality yourself :) If noone else does, I'll do that
myself, but I can't make promises as to when that will happen. It could
be weeks or it could be months from now.
