There arnt that many changes to maya since them, its not that much of an issue really. some menu changes, and they changed " edit polygon, and " " poly" to " mesh and edit mesh" things like that, Most all of the tools that were integrated into Maya since were already out there as addon's from Mj poly tools, or just random mel scripts,some were available in koshagaya.

Basically what i[m saying is that it really doesnt matter the age of the tutorial, the basics from what were done remain the same. Some of the menu's might change and some new tools might get added but beyond that it doesnt really effect anything.
