MemberHi,
I'm currently using the theme FOCUS and recently StudioPress upgraded it and now it's known as Focus Pro (HTML5). But should I upgrade it and what will be the changes? Can I upgrade without changing the CSS or upgrading means CSS has to be replaced?
I am unable to find the difference between my version and this Pro version.
So developers please guide...

MemberI guess you have to ask your self do I really need to upgrade to HTML5 Markup? The answer yes no you cannot upgrade your theme from XHTML to HTML5 with out changing your style.css file. Here's is a comparison chart that might help you. http://my.studiopress.com/docs/genesis-markup-comparison/

MemberFocus Pro is basically a completely different theme than the previous version. You would need to add all customizations again just like changing to a new theme. There is no compelling reason to change unless you need schema markup, but you can convert your existing theme to HTML5 without switching to Focus Pro.

Member@nutsandbolts Thank you for that... i think I will migrate to HTML5 by installing the new Pro theme and doing the customizations once again...
@robg Thanks for the link...
