Some people still work on it:
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gnustep/gnustep/dev-libs/gdl2/ChangeLog
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gnustep/gnustep/dev-apps/test/Testsuite/ChangeLog

But yes, we focus on main things we need. If enough people need unimplemented 
features of EOF, I'm sure someone will start working on it.

BTW, there's application using gdl2:
