Take a look here: <http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#new-exporter-switch> Apart from that I know about the following changes in syntax (to the best of my knowledge): 1. Attribute lines now take plists : #+attr_latex :width "5cm" : #+attr_beamer :options "width=5cm" 2. Beamer backend now interprets nested headline levels as blocks instead of lists. For some preliminary guidance you can look at this: <http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-beamer/org-e-beamer.html>. Hope this helps, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
