I agree with Gorath. My information (mostly through conversations with BioWare dev team members) indicates that they have moved well along and there is no active work being done on DAO at all. Patch 1.05 (which besides dealing with DLC authorization problems did address an even more serious memory use issue for a certain generation of graphics adapters, namely DX-10/10.1 cards like the one I was using at the time...) will likely be the last one ever.

The "Large Memory Area Flag" workaround for those with 4 (or more) GB of RAM is of some help. Lets the game use up-to about an additional GB of RAM.
