pe'i the list of prims is not complete and is not likely to be complete in the nearest future.
Also this list looks more what Anna Wierzbicka suggested many years ago.

I agree it's technically not complete, but people have been working on it nonstop since the project started, and there are no more easy primitives. Indeed, the list may actually be complete, but such can't be proven. OTOH, even if many more (30?) primitives are found, that's still less than 100.  

.ueru'e, no progress since then?
Then it won't be finished even in 100 years if mi'o lazni.

There has been continuous work on this project. But it will likely never be complete, in the same sense that a natlang is never complete.
