> I don't think they've done anything Mickey-related in a long while... They recently produced a number of shorts (like 3 seasons worth) starring Mickey, there are a few shows out starring him on the toddler focused market, they're building a keystone attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios around Mickey, they use him extensively in the parks still in new ways, etc. He is still in very heavy use throughout the company, but I don't think Steamboat Willie entering the public domain will damage that. :)
