I think we waited long enough for freeglut and some update of GLUT and GLUI is overdue.
FreeGLUT has certainly gained momentum in recent months, but I sould say that GLUT will still be needed for a while. I recently suggested to the FreeGLUT list that GL/freeglut.h should be used, rather than colliding with GL/glut.h --- as a "migration path" so that GLUT and FreeGLUT could be packaged side by side without conflicts or confusion. If you have an opinion on that I suggest you chime ni.
Just to let you know, I am acting as caretaker for GLUI at the moment:

I am thinking of doing a 2.3 release later this year, nothing major, mainly fixing minor irritations. If there are any GLUI forks out there, it would be nice to merge them back...
(I also have a bunch of contributed patches which I'll need to evaluate for inclusion)
