documentation
|F#
I've found several posts on hubFS of people asking if there is, or will be, offline documentation for F#. These posts haven't been answered. So I want to give it a shot and ask the same question here on SO.
Where I've looked for offline documentation so far:
The April 2010 CTP release of Visual F# (version 2.0) is available for VS 2008, but it doesn't come without an offline help.
There's a question on SO about offline documentation for various programming languages, but F# isn't mentioned there at the time of this writing.
There is of course Microsoft's F# language reference documentation (available on MSDN), which could be downloaded for offline browsing using e.g.
wget.
Question:
Does anyone know whether any "official" offline documentation is on the way, anytime soon?
(And related to this, albeit this probably can't be answered objectively: Would it be reasonable to expect that F# likely won't undergo ECMA or ISO standardization, ie. there likely won't be a standards document describing the language?)
