Hey Philip, great post - really informative. Especially happy to see that the nightly releases are coming along considering the pace of improvements by the likes of Vasily and all the rest.

I do have a small question about the Visual F# team at Microsoft. Are there any plans to grow the team at all? It seems that the company deems F# as a second class .Net language, preferring VB.Net/C# when it comes to contributions from employees and IDE features. Given the popularity of F# in surveys such as the recent annual Stack Overflow developers survey, is there any interest at the company to put more manpower to F# development?

P.S. I hope to see you around at the F# Exchange in London next month if I go.
