hubFS: THE place for F#

I'd like to use F# as a target language.

Is there a hook to get at parse tree of F# source code?

-OR- an XML schema and XML <-> F# translator?

-OR- open source access to an F# parser?

-OR- a Scheme-list equivalent to F# source code, that is strictly a nested list, without any of the syntactic sugar that makes is easier for humans to read (but more work for programs to generate or manipulate)?

The F# source is inculded in the distrib, so you have access to the parse, but not under an open source licence.

F# offers two the code dom [1] and quotations. The code dom allows you to dymically generate F# code and compile it. The code dom was primiraly created for C#/VB.NET so its very "statement originated", not great for F# but still usable. Quotations are probably more interesting to you, the allow you to grab an AST like object for parts of F# code. Tomas has a great article and provides a viewer for quotations here [2], and Don talks a little quotations in this here [3].
