There's no clear timeline or development roadmap. :/

What functionality do you need?

Right now we can burn in only a couple of modes, only support one
operating system, don't use HAL, don't rip at all (though there's some
bitrotted ripping code that worked once...)  A lot of this is pretty
distant.

I'm currently working on fixing up multi-track audio recording, I don't
think it works right for gapless CDs yet.  After that I'll do SAO.  This
should allow burning almost any CD on a huge percentage of the cd burners
out there.  That'll probably happen within a week or two, and be the 0.2
release.

As to helping out, just pick something you need and add it. ;)
