From what I've seed in Anjuta's Changelog and mailing list there is
some activity towards a 2.0
version.

If you want the best IDE I've seen under Linux go to
http://www.slickedit.com. It's a commercial
product, but it is a professional IDE:
- You can choose the binding you are accustomed with: Visual C++, Vi,
Emacs.
- Various source control systems.
- Code completion that works!
- JavaDoc support, and because gtkmm is documented with JavaDoc like
statements you have
additional info at code completion.

The drawbacks are:
- It's not open source, it costs some money.
- It uses a motif rendering engine, it's ugly compared with the rest of
the desktop.
- You cannot use `pkg-config --cinfo or --libs` with it's projects or
makefiles, it has support for external
maintained makefiles though.
