The IJF has been testing new rules for competition, these were trialed at the 2008 Junior World Champs. (Podcast about it here and here).
Since the event in October, the IJF has published some more documents in regard to the rules; including on the (new) gi measuring device.
I couldn't on first glance see them anywhere on the IJF website ( www.ijf.org ) but to save you some surfing I am putting them here/below:
