Hi,
in my .emacs I have a couple of (add-to-list
'org-structure-template-alist) blocks of my own, for example
#+begin_src
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist '("r" "#+begin_src rec :data?
:type \n#+end_src" ""))
#+end_src
which I used until a few months ago.
Is this correct of has the format changed?

In master branch, the format has changed. You may want to look at the
variable docstring.

The format slightly changed, please check this option's docstring.
Also see ORG-NEWS here, which I just updated:
https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/src/master/etc/ORG-NEWS#L65
Let me know if you think this is informative enough for other
users.
Thanks,

With the new template mechanism, can we have rich templates like the
one Charles quotes?
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist '("r" "#+begin_src rec :data? :type \n#+end_src" ""))
allowing cursor positioning, etc?
If yes, what pointer can we add to ORG-NEWS?
Thanks,

I don't know, but I would suggest to use Yasnippet or some other
specialized package for advanced templates like this one.

I think more complicated templating has gone into org-tempo.el, which
can be loaded separately, and uses the tempo package. The docstring of
`tempo-define-template' shows what's possible.

Prior to posting I did read the docstring for
org-structure-template-alist in version 9.1.12 and I found nothing
concerning "roll your own" templates. I have also read your org-news
entry as well as the other replies.
It is not clear to me - is it possible to write my own, fairly simple
template with a few modifications that are a result of some recent
changes or, for example, are elements such as those in
tempo-define-template now required?
Thanks.

I advertized both `tempo-define-template' and `yasnippet' in ORG-NEWS.
Best,

you would need to use `tempo-define-template', yes.

OK - something new to learn!
Thank you.

Not at the moment.
The particular example could be approximated with
("r" . "#+begin_src rec :data :type")
On the snippet expansion side, you can make whatever you want, see the
"<I" snippet.
It would require a different syntax to support more sophisticated blocks.
