I'm not aware of anyone maintaining the tree in alioth, as of the repo
I host on github (https://github.com/amery/linux-allwinner) I
personally care for: (in order of preference)

* allwinner-v3.0-android-v2: for those building ICS or linux, based on
the Qware's source drop, with sun5i unremoved and getting fixes and
sun3i support ported from the v1 tree. still no SATA!)
* lichee-v3.0-sun4i (built upon Qware's source drop, for those trying
in inject modules in a preinstalled ICS)

and soon to be spawned linux-v3.2-sunxi for Ubuntu/Linaro 12.04
compatibility (and hopefully other distributions also based on 3.2)
forward ported but un-androidized allwinner-v3.0-android-v2
