The current road map for LLBLGen Pro is as follows:

(hopefully) this week, we'll release LLBLGen Pro v4.1 beta. This beta will contain: * Full Async API in the LLBLGen Pro Runtime Framework (which comes with a lot of refactored code behind the scenes). It's in beta for a while, it's been merged in the runtime of v4.1. * Entity Framework v6 support * .NET 4.5.1 platform (this brings no additional functionality, only that you can select it as target framework) * Oracle 12c support (Identity fields/default sequences/new paging queries) * Oracle Managed ODP.NET provider support * Lots of small things/fixes/changes

At the end of December 2013/January 2014, we'll release LLBLGen Pro v4.2. V4.2 will contain the 'nice to have things' we originally planned for v4.1.

We split this up because we want EF v6 support out the door and backporting the support to v4.0 was a bit tricky as we had to make a change to the designer.

VS.NET 2013 support for the VS.NET extension and also in the installer has been rolled into v4.0's latest build (released an hour ago, see customer area) so if you want to run the designer inside VS.NET 2013, just grab the latest v4.0 installer and re-install.
