[just looking for information] nvidia 331.20 drivers

Hi!
I'm not sure where is the right place to ask this question so I thought here may be a good start. It will be helpful if someone can point me to good location where I can find things like this on my own in the future.

It appears that 331.20 proprietary drivers are out of beta. I was just wondering when we'll be seeing them in the repos? They seem to fix a lot of bugs at least on paper. Are there some issues with them for now or does it just takes more time with binary blobs until they are considered tested/stable enough for the official repos?

Thanks!

See the last point in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=130138

Edit: They're in the AUR, e.g. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-beta/

I installed the driver 2 days ago the driver wouldn't wake from sleep and killed x in the process..I had to reinstall both the older driver and x
