We are tracking important (new) features of the Flux query language here to complement Getting started with Flux.

Disclaimer: Please be aware features listed here are mostly not available from any InfluxDB at publishing time, when using InfluxDB 1.7.x GA-builds, users usually will have to wait for a while until new Flux releases will be rolled into regular InfluxDB releases. influxdb/CHANGELOG.md at 1.7 · influxdata/influxdb · GitHub is the right place to monitor this.

The best place to monitor what’s happening in Flux itself would be to it’s releases page on GitHub at Releases · influxdata/flux · GitHub.
