If you mean today, and fully featured, then I don't think so, no.

However, there may be some alternatives, depending on your needs, if 
you need something today -- use the SAL website and look around.

One item of interest may be a MicroStation academic version which is 
alleged to be affordable and well-featured, although I have no first 
hand knowledge, and does not meet your criteria for being gpl.

There's also a minimalist 2d (gpl) named FreeDraft.

For the future, Open Designer, as far as I can tell, will meet all of 
your criteria; however it is in the early development stages.  It has a 
mailing list (archives are still reasonably small), faq, ..
