No, not really.  None of the OpenMoko code (including GTA02) has ever
been usable in mainline as there's a reasonable patch stack for it out
of tree and the more of their code is in mainline the more likely it is
that that situation will improve.  The cost of extra platforms is really
very low and people actually send me patches for the OpenMoko devices
from time to time (much more frequently than for most other boards) so
at least someone cares.

Google tells me http://www.openmoko.org is a good start - you might want
to ask on the openmoko-kernel list.
