The What's New document is supposed to document the new features:
   http://www.myhdl.org/doc/0.6/whatsnew/0.6.html

For migration, I think the most important section is the one on
backwards incompatible changes:

http://www.myhdl.org/doc/0.6/whatsnew/0.6.html#backwards-incompatible-changes

The most important features are conversion to VHDL and enhancements
to the convertor capabilities. Consequently, the chapter on conversion
has been rewritten completely:

     http://www.myhdl.org/doc/0.6/manual/conversion.html

Moreover, there is a new chapter dedicated to conversion examples,
both in Verilog and in VHDL:

     http://www.myhdl.org/doc/0.6/manual/conversion.html

In the future, more in-depth examples, e.g. about test bench
conversion, will be added to the on-line Cookbook.

Jan
