Vic - this is an easy answer for roller furling. Class rules specifically allow roller furling.
5.8.1 Permitted Alternatives:
5.8.1.1 Jib roller furling system to facilitate sail handling.
I defer to the class measurer on hanks. I know there are boats that have raced with hanks at the NAs and previously measured in. I think hanks meet the intention of the rule below, since the fore and aft dimension is not exceeded (e.g. hanks are 0" groove)
5.8.1.2 Jib luff groove systems other than that which is provided standard shall not have a fore-and-aft dimension exceeding 31 mm.

We request that everyone go to this link and respond to the poll on how you attach your jib to the headstay. The poll is non attribution intended just to gather numbers. Feel free to discuss the topic as a reply to the poll. Please leave this thread in the One Design Class Rules forum for official rules request and determination.

A downside to hanks of course is that it's a bit more difficult to change headsails while you're on a beat. Having a body on the bow is a known performance reducer on a J/30.
I've never seen anybody actually change headsails upwind during the NAs I have been to.
