Have been reprieved from their relegation from the Ryman Premier, which now means (i think) that there are no spaces left for teams in that tier (Zamaretto Prem/Ryman Prem/Evo-Stik Prem).

There have been a few other changes too

As an aside, the Southern League won't be called the Zamaretto next season, as that sponsorship deal has completed its two year contract - unless it is renewed.

From the Leamington site
The Southern League today advised clubs of the following news relating to the structure. Following a meeting of the FA Leagues Committee yesterday relating to the expulsion of Rushden & Diamonds FC from the Football Conference at the weekend it became necessary to make further adjustments to the National League structure for season 2011/2012.
The decision set out below followed a long and thorough discussion during which a number of options were discussed. It was recommended that Rushden & Diamonds FC be excluded from the League structure pending any possible Appeal and the following movements approved:
Southport FC reprieved from relegation to Step 2 and returned to Step 1
Bishops Stortford FC moved from Conference South to Conference North
Thurrock FC reprieved from relegation to Step 3 and returned to Step 2 in Conference South
Aveley FC reprieved from relegation to Step 4 and returned to Step 3 in the Isthmian League Premier Division
Shepshed Dynamo reprieved from relegation to Step 5 and returned to Step 4 in the Northern Premier League Div 1 South
Bedworth United transferred from Northern Premier League Div 1 South to Southern League Div 1 Central
Soham Town Rangers FC transferred from Southern League Div 1 Central to Isthmian League Div 1 North
In addition, it was agreed that should it become necessary to accommodate Rushden & Diamonds FC they would be accommodated in the Southern League at Step 3 and that the competition would operate with 23 clubs in their Premier Divisions next season. Furthermore it should be noted that the club will need to satisfy a number of conditions before being accepted into the League.
