Eden is active, afaik,
Unfortunately, Eden is one of the examples I had in mind when referring to distributed Haskell projects as overly complicated and [for practical purposes] dead. Their last release available for download was in 2006. Their beta is "available upon request", which doesn't raise my confidence in the level of active development or openness of the project. From the notes here:
They just had a hackathon in St Andrews,
they don't seem to have even a source code repository yet, and they appear to be bogged down in that complexity I mentioned. It looks like they want to engage large, academically interesting problems and produce papers, as opposed to producing small tools that solve simple problems in simple ways. The practical solution, as a result, continues to be "use another language".
