Does anyone have any updates on this since the alpha 0.2?

Microsoft has now released LINQ to XSD as Open Source so that the community might care for it.

Here you can find the Status of LINQ to XSD

More info you can find here linq-to-xsd

I'm still hoping that this project will be picked-up for .net 4.0 and VS2010

There is actually an old blog post from Scott Hanselman on this exact project, and the fact that it appeared dead to the outside world at one time. Of course that was a year ago, so some things never change :)

UPDATE:

Found this forum thread, which seems to indicate the project is no longer active:

Interesting idea, and is actually what I thought LINQ to XML would be until I looked in to it.

This is a semi-official blog from the Microsoft XML team: http://blogs.msdn.com/xmlteam/archive/2006/11/27/typed-xml-programmer-welcome-to-linq.aspx

The series of posts dried up sometime ago: http://blogs.msdn.com/ralflammel/archive/2006/11/13/table-of-contents-for-typed-xml-programmer-series.aspx

Perhaps its been shelved for now.
