Hi I was wondering though there are many themes for the new 4.7. Is it possible some of the 4.6x themes might go over ok? I know some wont. But I am trying to figure out if I will have to do my marvin black theme all over from scratch or if I can copy over bits of CSS or just use the same theme on 4.7. While Marvin Black is based on camelon I also like Marvin 2k. I noticed one cvs theme(not marvin) said it would work on both versions of drupal. A few if I look in cvs don't say which version they may work with. Though they look like fairly new themes.
I've not tried the final release 4.7 yet. I'm just downloading files to install it. But I also didn't notice phptheme engine for it though some themes for 4.7 use it. I downloaded the cvs(version of the engine) in hopes it will just work. Is there more than one version of drupal in cvs still? I'm wondering if it's bad to presume cvs versions might work with current release.

Note also per the front page announcement, phptemplate is now part of core.
I would install in a test site, do a test upgrade of your db.
copy chameleon to 'black_chamleon (or similier).
diff or compare the style.css or just drop your old style.css in and see what happens.
You will probably need to tweak some.

Ok thanks :)
I wondered if it was part of core. I didn't notice it mentioned in the annoucement but I have the habbit of sometimes surfing when over tired so don't notice the odd thing.
