Cosmic desktopenvironment

Hey there. I’m rusty with Linux and new to Arch, so sorry if I ask something fundamental.
So, I just saw the news that Cosmic alpha-3 was just released. I wanted to test how much it improved since a2, but a simple system update didn’t help.
I enabled the extra-testing repo, and now alpha-3 packages show up. I couldn’t get yay or pacman to update to them.
What can I do?
Another question, just to calm my curiousity: How long does it usually take for such releases to end up in CachyOS repos? System76 released Cosmic a3 just 3 days ago (and it’s also Sunday today). When can one expect to them to be available?

Once a week if I remember right , maybe it was Mondays when they sync
