Hi Justin, Porting from OSG-0.9.9 to OSG-2.x is mainly about porting from osgProducer to osgViewer, which can actually be pretty straight forward, or hard depending on how level you got with using Producer. Conceptually and usage wise osgProducer::Viewer and osgViewer::Viewer are pretty similar and if you've just got an app working at this higher level then it may well just take an hour or two to port the viewer across.
The core OSG - the scene graph, utility libraries and NodeKits are all pretty similar between 0.9.9 and OSG-2.x, while not binary compatible will be close in API - it's mainly additions and fixes, all the basics you had in 0.9.9 will exist in OSG-2.x. There are a few pages on the wiki for helping port, but alas the server is inaccessible right now so I can't point you in the right direction. Robert.
