I'm not sure exactly which forum this fits in but NASA has just released the AO for Discovery Program 2006 and Missions of Opportunity. See the Discovery Program Acquisition Home Page for more details. Click on the "Discovery AO" link to download the PDF.

No, sorry if I was unclear. The missions of opportunity were indeed approved.

But there were three proposals selected for furthur study for a full Discovery mission: an asteroid sample return, a Venus orbiter, and a lunar orbiter.

I'm wondering what became of those.

I recall reading that the selection of the next full mission will be announced in December.
