A few things still need to be ironed up.

Expect full support around .NET Core 2.0 time.

Awesome. IMHO to really "take off" fsharp is going to need a super smooth .net core story including .net core ionide support. It's not a sure thing, but I can't stress enough my belief in these two things:

* Seemless x-platform with dotnet core

* ionide working with dotnet core(and ideally on par with at least xamarin fsharp support)
