The changes I have seen is that if you walk through the WTMD with your shoes and you don't alarm, but your shoes otherwise do meet the profile, then you are only subject to an ETD swab of your shoes. You do not get the full secondary wanding and your shoes do not have to come off.

I also understand that changes related to carry-ons have been made, but I haven't noticed any differences on that yet.

My understanding is that the changes began a week ago Monday, which comports with what I have seen.
