FuBar died sometime ago. :-) It is being kept on life support by volunteers. That being said, it will likely be kept alive for sometime because of the large number of people using it.

Most new addons are being written against the open LDB standard which allows for user choice in what sort of display they want, whether that is a bar, lego blocks, etc.

Fubar fans should look at DockingStation, Chocolate Bar, NinjaPanel, etc if they're looking for a work-alike.

The "dies in 3.2" is because of a change to the Rock library that Fubar uses (along with Cowtip, and some other other of ckknight's addons). I believe there was a fairly trivial patch to fix it, though, that is probably already out there.
