The only essential change is to convert to the new states for all
buttonlists (four rather than three, I actually think you asked about
this some time ago?). The conversion can be done with a script.

http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/attachment/ticket/7781/selectedinactive-v3.sh

Run that from the base dir of your theme and it ought to be .23
compatible. Everything else is new features and yes, it's documented
in the wiki.

Looking back -- I sort-of did. Sorry, must be the brain strain from trying
to help with fourth grade math homework. :-)

Naw, I meant about the four state buttonlist, which at that time
wasn't possible (but now is). Just giving you context so that you
know what the change is.

OH - got it. I was worried I had already asked what the changes were, and I
had no doubt I might have done so.

I did just find John Poet's post fomr Feb 2nd, just didn't realize that was
the only change.

It's not, it's just the only one that will prevent your unadjusted
themes from functioning. A small number of new features, you just
have to explicitly implement them.

OK -- then I guess that's the list I was looking for. would those be the
developement-only features "discussed in blue" on the Wiki page ?

They were until I removed the blue to reflect .23 as "current." Only
a teensy bit premature, but you can check the history to see when I
removed the blue highlights.

Did the ability to have different templates for the various buttonlists in a
buttontree make it into 0.23 ? I thought I recalled seeing a post that a
patch had been submitted and would be in 0.23, but I don't see that
reflected in the docs.

No. To the best of my knowledge Stuart still has that planned but
when he gets to that is up to him.
