Once everything has stabilized again in sid and migrated to stretch we
will provide jessie-backports for
a) the new infrastructure packages (nvidia-support, glx-alternatives)
along with the current sid drivers (which is essentially the same as in
jessie right now), this should allow again to use the experimental
packages on jessie and
b) newer driver releases as they reach sid and stretch (which will
happen soon, since we have now forked off the 340 legacy series).
(and thereafter we can start experimenting in experimental with 355+
where nvidia did some more infrastructural changes)
