Nothing much has happened since then because no problems with the
OpenSearch template have been reported since those I fixed back then.  It's
hard for me to know if that's because nobody uses it or it is free of
obvious problems.

If OpenSearch 1.1 is incompatible, it would be good to know what needs
changing for it.
