Rulesets doesn't change things drastically, though there
are quite a few small changes.  Mainly the unit_types[], 
improvement_types[] and advances[] arrays are filled in at 
run-time rather than be compiled in.  As far as the protocol
is concerned there are three extra packets and some minor 
changes to existing packets.

http://msowww.anu.edu.au/~dwp/freeciv/patches/rs_new2a.diff.gz
is an only slightly out-of-date rulesets patch which may give 
you some idea.  (To be updated, yep, real soon now.)
