xModules: You know shortcut, and maybe label (depending how long it's actually been), right? Yeah, they've been replaced...big time.

If it has been long enough, the wharf has sort of died. It can easily be redone, but no one has bothered to make such a theme (xLabel and friends are fully capable of recreating the functionality and look).

To try some themes using them well, check out Popsicle and FBL Dynamic.

We've got real scripting in LS now, but it's taking time to really get to use it well. LSLua and pyscript (pyscript-0.2 probably needs to go ahead and get releaed--hint hint) give us Lua (5.1) and Python (2.4 with pyscript-0.1); both of which are top-notch languages. LSLua is a little more rough, but its issues are minor (small memory leak on !recycle, minor lack of LSAPI access compared to pyscript).

Oh, and you know litestep.com? It had a wiki, and was up, and is now down again for some time.

There's mostly a new OTS, too. Tobbe basically needs to get his part done, and then we need to bicker a little more over at lsdev.org, and a modern installer will be out.
