What's the current status for creating an F# project for Android on the Alpha channel?
In http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15113182/fsharp-core-cannot-be-found-in-xamarin-studio, Onorio Catenacci just said it worked for him out of the box, but when I tried it I got:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(2,2): Error MSB4018: The "GenerateResourceDesigner" task failed unexpectedly. System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'FSharp.Core, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. File name: 'FSharp.Core, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'

Yes, those F# team guys are correct, it is indeed an issue that FSharp.Compiler.CodeDom.dll being dependent on FSharp.Core.dll (because that CodeDom dll, which is part of powerpack, is actually built upon F# 2.0). I recently made a fix for that, so the next version will work without F# 2.0 workaround. So far please live with 2.0 installation. Sorry for inconvenience.
