This is basically old news (2010), but the URL of the online PDF has moved about.
Some fragments of Codex Tchacos containing gJudas were recovered since 2006. A preliminary translation for private use only, here:

Re: The "new" Gospel of Judas fragments (from Codex Tchacos)
Meyer did publish a new translation incorporating the new fragments before he died:
http://www.amazon.com/The-Gospel-Judas- ... 1610973712
It is a pretty slim volume, although it does have a short introduction and a pretty decent number footnotes. As I recall, I think he stuck to his original position on most of the translation issues that people had brought up after the initial 2006 publication, sometimes defending them in the introduction or notes, but I'd have to read it again to be sure.
