Yes, the gdc downloads page hasn't been updated in 9 months:

https://gdcproject.org/downloads

By comparison, ldc is at the ddmd 2.074 frontend, which has been 
downloaded 7000 times in the last month since it was released:

The gdc devs should put out a new release with a more up-to-date 
frontend and announce it, so that all this work they've done gets 
more use.
