No problem, and I wouldn't say it was *that* obvious :) I found this
document extremely helpful:
- http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html

I also started (and should really update again/maintain!) this as a
landing place for documenting other things as they come up:
- http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/ox-overview.html

And have a blog post walking through setting things up here, if it helps:
- http://jwhendy.blogspot.com/2013/03/migrating-to-new-org-mode-exporter-org.html


Good luck! We're all learning here, so no worries on the mailing list.
More things for Google to index for users stumbling on this after you!
