Is Seaside still being developed? Seems that it died out with DabbleDB being bought up and the take over of the client side js frameworks.

Seaside is still developed, but if I were writing a website in Smalltalk right now, I'd be using one of the REST frameworks along with Amber Smalltalk, not Seaside. IMHO, Seaside is an amazing and beautiful piece of technology whose time has passed. I'd personally probably look at something like Iliad instead.

Yes seaside is still in active development and there is progress on getting a nice configuration working on Pharo 2.0. Until then you can use our manual build from https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/Seaside-2.0/ to test it.

It isn't fully functional, is it? The image from the CI opens with an STDOUT error.

What's missing to have a "nice" (working?) configuration for Pharo 2.0?

Of course, and there is integration with jQueryMobile even. http://jquerymobile.seasidehosting.st

Ah, I see. I stop by seaside.st every once and a while, and it doesn't seem to have been updated with any new news for a long time. It would be cool to mention some of these developments on its front page.
