"Gofmaniada" is still being made
A 2010-08-27 news report by RIA Novosti says that work on this Soyuzmultfilm animated feature, which I earlier wrote about in 2007, 2008 and 2009, is actually still progressing. I've added English subtitles so you can watch it below.

UPDATE (2011-08-13): The video below won't work now; watch it here instead.
They've been working on this on and off for the past 9 years. The first 20 minutes were already finished in 2006. More info on Wikipedia. I can't quite understand if, according to the video, they spent the past year making a further 30 minutes, or if that includes those 20 minutes from 4 years ago.
It also looks like there's a new official website for the film (the last one was closed a while ago):
http://alkogolik.com/index.html
Based on the strange URL, outdated material and some non-working links, I'm guessing it's not meant to be public yet. The English and German-language versions are non-functional.
There's also a new photo-gallery that goes with this video over here.
