Yes, in June we've put in the Pickard-Mauri GIPAW method for computing
the NMR and EPR. It's in the CVS version, in the NMR_new directory.
Right now, only the "bare" term is implemented. A. Seitsonen and U. 
Gerstmann have just implemented the reconstruction part. The code needs
to be cleaned up and tested extensively. We are 2-3 ppm off
the reference calculations done with an other code and we are
currently investigating. I hope everything will be fixed within
2-3 weeks.
