Thanks for this blog! Very helpful in staying of top of F# news. Regarding GestIT: I see C# code there [in addition to Obj-C, and Java] but no F#…
Thanks! I mean that it is ready to use in F#, as it is available in C#. (post updated)
It has been rewritten in F# and accessible from C#. You can play with it on Try F#

Can json.net deal with f# algebraic types? As I know, ServiceStack can.
