The ONLY change that is officially approved since CLL is "xorlo", but 
"xorlo" is more or less optional from the standpoint of a learner, since 
it reportedly doesn't invalidate any CLL usage.  (But many learners 
apparently find it easier to understand than the CLL version of the same 
words).

Nobody else has, so you don't need to.  Use what you do understand and 
try things you think you might understand, learning from any errors that 
are pointed out to you.

We'd all love for those to exist, but it takes time to write and edit 
and proofread and index, etc, when everyone is a volunteer and the most 
knowledgeable seem to be most short of time.
