I missed out...

- We now have Callahan goals (14.1): If you intercept and catch a disc
in the endzone you're attacking it's an immediate goal.

- Spirit of the game is no longer rule # 1

- Wrapping your arms around the thrower while having one disc distance
between your arms and the upper body of the thrower seems ok according
to the new rules. In my opinion this is a change to rules: The old rule
404.11.3 was "When guarding the thrower, the marker cannot position his
or her arms in such a manner as to restrict the thrower from pivoting".
