Hi Ehsan, For the most part the common API of 2.8.x and 3.0.x has been maintained so applications should port from 2.8.x to 3.0.x easily. Often it will simply be a case of recompiling against the new version, occasionally you might find a difference, if you do just ping the list or have a look through the API in question, if there has been a change that effects you it's very likely it's something like typo fix or minor revision.
The big differences between 2.8.x and 3.0.x lie in internals of the OSG, and additional new functionality that sits alongside the old classes. The really big change is that the OSG now supports OpenGL ES, but for an OpenGL/OSG application developer this will just be latent functionality that you won't use and won't be affected by. Robert.
