Kind of strange how this class type has dropped of the F# released with VS2010

Does anyone know where it has gone? or where it is now?

+4  A: 

It is in the F# powerpack, which is used by the F# team for "unstable" code that will get released and updated more often than the main release of F# and libraries. (Note that the code is still high-quality code, you should ignore most of the connotations that "unstable" has in this case). It's just a way for the F# team to get more experimental code out there quickly, once F# is released for real.

API documentation here.

If you're using the F# release for VS2008, you should already have the powerpack. With 2010 it is a separate download.

Apparently the download link is broken now (MS... <sigh>). It appears to be supported on Codeplex, here: http://fsharppowerpack.codeplex.com/
