Migration from Cornerstone Foundation 3 #9

Is there any info on migrating a site built with the Foundation 3 version of Cornerstone to this version? Any tips/gotchas/etc.? Any help greatly appreciated.

There's a guide at http://foundation.zurb.com/migration.php for the Foundation 3 to 4 side of things. The main changes since the Foundation 3 version are things like class names, eg entry is now entry-content and postmetadata is now entry-meta. I'm now using naming conventions and html styling from the Twenty Twelve theme as much possible. The navigation menu was removed in Foundation so there's only the top navigation bar available. For a recent project I managed to keep the old look on desktops using css to put the logo etc above the Top Bar. The example child theme at https://github.com/thewirelessguy/cornerstone-child-theme has some general boilerplate css to get you going including a few fixes for any issues I've spotted between Foundation and WordPress.
