I think it would be nice if you could send out your dwarves to spy out goblin camps or to conquer them, or other stuff like sending traders, and you can watch them travel, so what i mean is basically access to the whole world.

All that and a thousand times more is already planned. The next release is laying much of the groundwork for it so we'll hopefully be seeing more and more of this with each following release, probably starting with taverns and off-site visitors to your fortress.

do you by any chance know when the next version is released?

There's no set date, since the 2 last estimates (march of last year, and then last winter iirc) kind of missed the mark a bit. Going by the devlog though Toady only has 1 last feature to finish up, which shouldn't take more than a few days most likely, and then there's a bugfixing period which could last anywhere between a few weeks to a few months :>

FTFY
but seriously, you will be able to sned out not only spies, but in theory direct whole armies with dwarves sourced from many sites as well as god knows what other kind of things you could send out (I think there's a mention somewhere of sending people out to build roads or bridges or other off site things) but I believe those features are far off.  But then again, who knows what the content focus will be after this release?
also goblins don't have camps they have dark fortresses (aka towers).  Maybe you're thinking of kobolds
