Paul, We're still in active development. Most of our recent efforst are around two areas: alternative debugger support (for the ruby-debug library in Ruby) and solidifying/integrating GSoC work on type inferrencing and also refactoring work done by Mirko Stocker and his crew. We have nightly builds available on a separate update site (the url is posted on our Sourceforge download page) - they should build fine on Eclipse 3.2.
You might also want to subscribe to our developer's mailing list. It gives a little better insight into what's going on. As for being busy - I am very much so right now - so I haven't been able to do much recently. I just got married and returned from my honeymoon yesterday. So I should have a little more time to devote closer to Christmas time - but we are pushing for a 0.9.0 release as soon as we can get a solid looking candidate.
