Yes and no :-)
There were some minor bug fixes and speed improvement during 2005:
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gnustep/gnustep/dev-libs/gsweb/ChangeLog

It doesn't evolve too much because it is stable.

I have no real plan about this but I'd like to. We should release a version 
stable version. I think about this each time we release a GNUstep base version

Any idea, comments and help are welcome !
