Personally, I used Ubuntu GNU/Linux, so that's the distribution I have 
developed on and the GUI therefore runs most reliably. Because I do not 
use MATLAB (and when I started writing on the GUI, I even didn't use GNU 
Octave), I have made screenshots at university and tried to stick as 
close as possible to the MATLAB IDE as possible.

For the exact release date, I cannot give you a reliable answer. It 
will be released when it's reliable in the eyes of the GNU Octave 
community. Until then, you can retrieve the current development sources 
and build the latest GNU Octave, which already has a GUI by default.

Happy hacking,
Jacob
