One week ago, Somasegar (Corporate VP for the Microsoft Developer Division) wrote on his blog that Microsoft will integrate F# (a functional language) in Visual Studio.
We will be partnering with Don Syme and others in Microsoft Research to fully integrate the F# language into Visual Studio and continue innovating and evolving F#. In my mind, F# is another first-class programming language on the CLR.
No time frame has been given so we can only guess that might happen with the next version of Visual Studio.
You can read more about F# at Microsoft Research and Don Syme’s blog.

Scott Guthrie announced today that Microsoft will release (under the Microsoft Reference License) the source code for the .NET Framework libraries, including:
- .NET Base Class Libraries (System, System.IO, System.Collections, System.Configuration, System.Threading, System.Net, System.Security, System.Runtime, System.Text, etc)
- ASP.NET (System.Web)
- Windows Forms (System.Windows.Forms)
- ADO.NET (System.Data)
- XML (System.Xml)
- WPF (System.Windows)
More than that, Visual Studio 2008 will provide debugging support for the library. Basically you’ll be able to see in the call stack the source file and line of a call from the library, and step into that code.
More about this you can read from Scott Guthrie’s blog.
