Legal dice?

I've been reading the other dice threads, and wondered to myself: Are there any current standards either in place with the ABT, USBGF, or any other national or international backgammon body that specifically define what dice (or die) may be used during a match?

I ask because of the squared discussion (I think its specified somewhere that you must have rounded corners), and the p40 dicer app. Can the fully square dice be used? Can the app be legally used?

Also, clocks? Are there standards there?
