They've fairly recently released version 2 of their desktop, and the
project is still going along happily as far as I'm aware.

For an idea of what's happening, check out these places:

That being said, I'm a kind-of recent convert to KDE simply because it's
miles ahead in terms of what end users, especially if you're converting
them from MS-Windows to an actual operating system, expect to get.
