Nachiket,
It is called VHDL-200X. You can find more information at:

is there any effort to extend VHDL into something similar to what's
happening in the Verilog world..i.e. systemVerilog. it would be really
unfortunate if VHDL just got replaced with some Verilog clone without
a fight from the VHDL camp.

Paulo,
Actually, as a working group member, I have seen
significant progress. Proposals have to be made,
analyzed, and then integrated into the standard.
Four months ago, most were just conceptual proposals.
Now most of the proposals have detailed analysis
associated with them and many have been reviewed.
IEEE standards working groups do not get any support
from IEEE or IEEE-SA. 90% of the work done by a
working group is done on a volunteer basis.
While many members come from EDA companies, many others
do not. Some people get supported by their company to
spend time participating and others do it in their
spare time (taking away from their family).
Bottom line, if you want standards to move at a faster
pace, you need to volunteer. You need to earn the right
to complain. If you are not happy with the direction a
standards group goes, you need to participate, otherwise,
again, you have no right to complain. People working
on standards are not claravoint and may not think of the
great idea you have - unless you either share it or
help develop it by participating.
The final step in getting the standard done is to
integrate the proposals into the standard. This is work
that is typically done by one individual (to ensure
continunity). Unfortunately the amount of time it takes
implies that it is not feasibile to do this on a voluntary
basis - as a result, since we are not funded by IEEE,
we also need to raise funds to support this effort.

It seems like this they haven't had any progress since 4 months ago!
This new standard is so overdue!!!
Anyways what is VHDL 2002?? Where can I find what is exactly new with
this standard??
