All unofficial: Since F# will ship in VS2010, the next release is likely to be as part of VS 2010 Beta1 (with a corresponding new CTP-atop-VS2008 released around the same time). However this just shifts the question to 'when will VS2010 have Beta1', which is another unknown.
What features / changes can we expect in the next release? On top of my own list is an easy way to build the F# compiler and its libraries for different platforms. If F# is ever going to be open source this is a must. Another point is the removal of underscores in function names in the core library to increase consistency with .NET naming. Once F# is released with Visual Studio it will probably be more complicated to change that.
When you say building it for other platforms, how would this work when it depends on the .NET Framework? Unless you just meant compiling it for use under Mono.
Also, I'm not sure how much this helps answer your original question, but I've submitted a ton of bug reports with the compiler, and with only 1 or 2 exceptions, they'd all already been fixed before I submitted them. So at least from a stability point of view the compiler seems to be coming along pretty strong.

Mono is one platform, but also Silverlight, Azure etc. Licensing issues aside i would like an easy way to recompile (parts of) FSharp.Core for those platforms. Right now it is not clear if it is even possible to recompile the released F# source code for the regular .NET framework. To be honest issues like this make me hesitant to use F# when other languages such as Haskell, Clojure etc. are more open.

Don Syme has stated that the current (perhaps non-binding) roadmap for FSharp include moving the repository to Codeplex and simultaneously publishing with a MS-PL licence in the VS2010 timeframe.
I have taken these as an article of faith and hope that this transition is made as early as possible. Uptake in enterprise and academia is going to be made significantly easier once this move is made.
One of the many benefits would be a public searchable bug database as - like divisortheory - I've submitted many bug report that have already been fixed in the trunk build. I'd prefer to do some minimal research myself before wasting any of the FSharp team's precious time.

Hi All,
Well, it's been about 6 months since the last F# CTP release. Any clues when we can expect an updated version?
Cheers,
Harry Reed
