I'll knock up some documentation on the new trait tags. Its very different, much more flexible that the old mechanism. It works a bit like the event system in that you have the definition of the Trait in one file with another file (TraitTriggerInfos) defining when the trait counter is changed, and by how much. The events (Hooks) that can cause the counter to be changed are stored as enum values so are defined in /Assets/XML/GlobalTypes.xml .... this is going to make you go 
until you get your head round it, but it's a better system once you understand how the pieces fit together
Process in short is:
1 - Game runs along until it reaches a hook (e.g. one unit killing another) from the GlobalTypes.xml in the dll code
2 - All the TraitTriggersInfos that are associated with that hook are then processed
3 - Traits get their counters changed based on the info in the TraitTriggerInfo
I have only added the places where GreyFox had hooks to change the counters for now, so I need to expand it a bit to add some new ones in such as Improvements being built, etc. The way it is coded makes it very simple to add new hooks so those can be added almost at will.
I have moved the existing trait changes over to the new system where there are hook's in place for them so you have some examples. The easiest way is to look at the examples in the TraitTriggerInfos and work your way backwards from there.
Walking through a couple of simple examples:
a - When the player constructs any building increase the Industrious trait counter by +5
b - When the player constructs a religious shrine increase Spritual by 10%, but the change must be at least +5 and capped at +25 additionally increase Organised by +2
When the game runs and any player constructs a building both these triggers will be processed for the player completing the building. The first trigger will always fire (make the defined trait counter changes) as it has no additional prereqs, but the second will only fire if the building is a shrine.
