Is it me or does this actually say nothing changes? We will still have Altar girls, 15 lay people handing out communion and raising our hands at the Our Father, type stuff.

No, it's not just you. This document appears to be a major disappointment. What will change in your parish after this document has come out, whether your parish be liberal or conservative? Nothing. It looks like Dr. Thomas Drolesky had the inside scoop when he wrote

We don't always get what we want. I get the distinct impression that this is a strike two situation.

As for girls serving - note how the virtues of having boys served are laid out specifically and girls and women are listed in what will probably be described as an afterthought. It's obvious what the Vatican prefers in this case.
