A summary of the changes:
1- Changed all instances of "Fusion Deck" to "Extra Deck" and added references to Synchro Monsters where there were only Fusion Monsters.
2- Maximum main Deck size is now 60 cards. Minimum remains at 40.
3- Maximum Extra Deck size is now 15 cards. Extra Deck still follows appropriate Forbidden/Limited List restrictions.
4- Multi-Trigger Effects of Monsters are now called "Quick Effects." This wasn't specifically called out in the Policy Document, since it's not a "policy" but am adding it in this post for completeness.
5- Side Decks will not be changing. They will remain at either 0 or 15 cards, and a Side Deck in-between shall not be permitted in Sanctioned Tournaments.
6- Other terminology for Tributes and Tribute Summons will not be changing. They will continue to use the word "Tribute"
7- Legality dates for the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Starter Deck and Premium Pack 2 have been added.
8- Legality date for The Duelist Genesis has not yet been added, but it will be legal for local tournaments on the date of the Sneak Preview. The date for legality in Premier Events has not yet been finalized but will be added soon, at which point a new version of Appendix A will be uploaded to the web site.
I think that just about covers all the questions that people might have. If I missed something I will add it in.
