I would like to play around with F# on my Linux box, but I struggle to find up-to-date versions of the relevant files. The F# cross-platform packages are from 2010 and the plug-in seems to be for Monodevelop 2.4 (I have 2.8 installed, which is not the newest anyway…). Is the project still alive? Am I looking at the right place?
F# cross-platform package is pretty outdated. Depending on which Linux distro you’re using, F# may be distributed with Mono 2.10.x (check Mono homepage for details). Otherwise, you should build F# compiler from source for latest version.
The original F# binding does not work with MonoDevelop 2.8. Fortunately, the F# binding is being actively developed by Scott Stephens under a Google Summer of Code project. There are first positive sights as being mentioned here. For discussion, you can post on F# Open Source Community Group or ask questions here.
