<p>The 6.x to 7.x module migration guide can be found at<br>
<a href="http://drupal.org/node/224333">http://drupal.org/node/224333</a><br>
and<br>
<a href="http://drupal.org/node/394070">http://drupal.org/node/394070</a><br>
(one guide is by category and the other is chronological)</p>
<p>This migration guide doesn't mention that in UNSTABLE-5, the core function node_view() was removed. Function node_build() was substituted for this function. Here are two code issues related to this: <a href="http://drupal.org/node/390774">http://drupal.org/node/390774</a> and <a href="http://drupal.org/node/351235">http://drupal.org/node/351235</a></p>
<p>I wanted to fix the migration guide, but I have insufficient permissions.</p>
<p>Suggest adding the following text (for section UNSTABLE-5 and category Core Functions Removed, on the two different pages):</p>
<p>Replace node_view() with node_build()<br>

A decision was made for Drupal 7 to keep data in structured arrays as long as possible before rendering. The node_view() function was therefore removed, in favor of node_build().</p>
