We will have migration guide ready before we will announce the general availability of catkin.
A draft (which is very likely to change in the near future) can currently be found in the github repository of catkin (
https://github.com/ros/catkin/tree/master/doc - especially in
rosbuild_migration.rst).
Some further information from the design phase is available at
http://ros.org/doc/fuerte/api/catkin/html/
Please keep in mind that the development is currently still ongoing and some things are likely to change...
