I realize that things look pretty quiescent with OCRopus right now, but we're busy working on the next release.
The biggest change for the release will be that all top-level functionality will be exposed and programmable from Python. This should make customization, documentation, and training significantly simpler. We've also developed new training and correction tools (I mentioned these before) and have been using them for training better character recognition models. Support for ligatures and unicode is also coming along. We'll probably not finish that before the next release, but we want to finish the C++ portion of that so that all the remaining logic for unicode and ligature handling can then be done in Python. The biggest holdup has still been the delivery of our new compute servers. They were supposed to arrive a couple of months ago, but they're supposedly on their way to us now. Once they arrive, I expect a few more weeks of training and testing before we push a functional release out that people can finally start hacking and building on.
