No, Fortran is still in big use, and yes it is obsolete. However, it has 
some features people like, like local arrays that are dimensioned at 
procedure call time. I'm playing with the idea of implementing such a 
feature in FPC, like:

procedure x(const s:integer);

var a:array[0..s] of byte;

... or something.
