Is the development documentation which was present at mdc site present in the wiki and/or SDK?
Likely not all of it. The recent SDK was built from scratch from the materials that we have in the MorphOS source tree so there are likely things missing from it that were available in the past.
Quote:
Is the available doc in the wiki can be considered complete? If not is the wiki enough to find it's way through the SDK?
Sadly, they are not complete. We do not have the resources to write proper docs for all the components inherited from AOS, so supplementing the SDK docs/guides with a AOS 3.x SDK is probably a good idea. Most of the new/changed functions are documented though.

What parts of the RKRM are obsolete if any to program for Morphos?
All the hardware related parts and many older techniques are obsolete. CBM used to document a lot of internal structures and so people were used to peeking and poking into these. We have instead decided to create special functions to read/modify those fields (see all the new exec.library functions for example). Another thing is the GUI parts - the MorphOS GUI apps shall always use MUI for which we provide pretty good documentation and examples.

Is the knowledge learned to program Morphos today will be still valid to program Morphos natively when the architecture switch will happen?
That's a bit hard to say at this stage.
