UPDATE: After a few errors were found and fixed, CIVA re-released the new catalog. Use the link below to download the latest greatest version.
CIVA has decided to re-organize the catalog, and now every figure will have a four-part number. For instance, the former 8.1.1 Humpty Bump will now be 8.4.1.1. Only Family 9 -- "Rolls & Spins" -- is unchanged. Therefore every single Free Program will have to be re-certified for the 2012 season. The good news is that only the figure numbers have changed.
On the upside there are many cool new figures, and the new organization makes sense. For those who'd like to try wrapping their heads around the new numbering system, here's an overview from Brian Howard:
Family 1
The figures of Family 1 are assigned to Sub-Families based on the number of internal lines within the figure. Thus Sub-Family 1.1. will have a single line, 1.2 will have two
lines and so on. For example, if you have a figure "N" in your Free, you'd go straight to Sub-Family 1.3 (three internal lines) to find the new number.
Family 2
The turns and rolling turns are grouped in Sub-Families based on the extent of the turn involved. 90° turns are Sub-Family 2.1, up to full 360° turns which are in Sub-Family 2.4.
Family 3
Figures in Family 3 are defined by the number of corners within the figure.
Families 5 and 6
Stall Turns and Tail Slides are grouped into sub-families according to the number of internal lines. Basic Hammerheads, though drawn with a single line, really have one vertical up line and one vertical down line, thus are assigned to Sub-Family 5.2. The 45-Hammers are either 5.3 or 5.4 depending on the number of 45-degree lines added to the two vertical lines. All Tail Slides have two vertical lines and are grouped as Sub-Family 6.2.
Family 7
Half loops are Sub-Family 7.2.x.x., full loops Sub-Family 7.4.x.x. and so on. Family 7.5.x.x. include Horizontal and Vertical "S"s; Sub-Family 7.6.x.x. contain figures with a 3/4 looping
segment (6/8 loops); Family 7.8.x.x. contain both Horizontal and Vertical "8"s.
Family 8
Figures in Family 8 are grouped into logical sub-families according to the extent of the major internal looping segment each contains, in 1/8 loop multiples. Thus, Family 8 starts with 8.4.x.x. for Humpty Bumps which have an internal segment of 4/8ths. Next are figures in 8.5.x.x. with internal segments of 5/8ths, such as Half-Cubans and the vertical "keyhole" shapes. 8.6.x.x. contains P-Loops etc with a 6/8ths segment; 8.7.x.x. "Q" Loops with a 7/8ths segment and so on.
Family 9 is unchanged from the previous Catalogues.
