A318/319 - Gust Load Alleviation ??

Jst got back from Gay Paris, Saw the flight-test A318 - I guess they added 6 or so inches to the vertical tail to make up for the reduce moment arm - and therefore rudder authority through which the vertical tail/rudder reacts through. Does anyone know if they are using a gust load alleviation system on this new bird ?

Just curious - thanks
