There has been a substantial development effort over the last two year, which hasn't been integrated back into the Linux source yet (on sourceforge, you will see a tarball for 1.0, which contains all of the improvements, but hasn't yet been re-ported to Linux). It's looking for a volunteer at this stage, so I can't give an explicit time frame...
