It's still under active development, altho this has been slowed because the Linux server has been shelved due to POSIX threading problems under the 2.4.x kernel series. Once 2.6-stable is released they will continue their efforts to port the server and up development on the client. Not a big task according to the lead developer since the Mac OSX port is done.
