I am currently rebuild an old DNN site that uses old DNN Core Forum. Now that DNN 6.2 is out and with some new Social features, is it simple to move old Core forum data into the new system? Or they are totally different?

if you are still using DNN core forum module, it shouldn't be too difficult. If you want to use new active forum, you should check for upgrade script and guidelines.

My site is currently built on DNN 6.1 and I already have a lot of contents on that. My question is if I should upgrade my site to 6.2 or not, is there a lot of change between the versions? And what is the guideline of transferring the core forum to Active forum? All information I found are pretty old and outdated with broken links, and I cannot find any official tutorial or something similar to do all this.

there are changes regarding user profile, AFAIR Chris blogged, how to achieve DNN 6.2 features for an upgraded site. you may continue to use core forum for now, or try migration to Active forums, there has been a migration script published on codeplex, but be careful, there are a number of different use cases for forums and not all of them might be covered 100%: I would test a migration first on a clone of your DNN installation.
