#1: all over the web. ;) Most themes currently released are OTS compliant. Or rather, claim to be. See #2, below.
#2: unfortunately, many themers don't really care to test their themes on different configurations, just add the OTSMajorVersion / OTSMinorVersion lines, that's it. Hence, you may have to fix the theme for the bloke who did it. :( Make sure to check comments to different themes, e.g. on litestep.net, if you encounter any issues with running a theme. Also, some modules have bugs which may produce weirdo effects such as random litestep crashes and the like. It's still pretty much trial and error, really.
Just read the forums and especially the readmes that ship with themes you download, and you should be fine.
