This will be rolled out in two phases, the first will be that crime success rate and payout will now take into account your classes passed and your skills (plus some other undisclosed things), where appropriate. The second phase will be the progressive unlocking of crimes as you go, versus just dumping all crimes on anyone who attains level 5.
The reason for this is twofold. First, because I don't want to introduce two new things at once, in case someone finds a bug, it will be easier to diagnose. Second because the change in success rate/payout will affect everyone, whereas the unlocking of crimes will affect fewer players.
I am electing to wait until tomorrow to release the update, as it is getting late, and I want to be able to keep an eye on things after it's released.
Has it been released yet?

thats exciting.
Actually, it's the opposite. It is for all players, and affects everyone.
The next phase will be the unlocking of crimes as you go, rather than having them all dumped on you at level five. This will have more of an affect on younger/lower level players for now, until new crimes are introduced.
This update gives more use to skills and classes you've either already taken, or plan on taking. It also opens the door for me to add new classes that will be beneficial in crimes, for example, a basic Private Investigation class.

I would expect a graduate level chemistry course to be of use in the manufacture of certain illegal drugs.
