Miles & More (Lufthansa, Austrian, Swiss, and other partners) - New business class on brand-new A330-300

I just flew on a brand new A330-300 with new first, business and economy class. The business layout indeed is \\ /\ // , i.e., not v-shaped in the window blocks. That makes a huge difference for privacy compared to the consistently v-shaped layout in the 747-800.
I had a comfortable rest for the night, just the space for the feet was too tight (especially small "cave" for the window-seats). The firmness of the seat - which you can adjust in five levels - was just right. I liked the pillow, the blanket was very basic.
If you do not end up in one of the middle seats, the A330-300 experience in new business was actually nice and a strong improvement over old biz.

Has lufthansa published seat maps for new business class on A330's?
I am booked on BOM-MUC in December that A330 will have the new business class.

How difficult/troublesome was it to get to the aisle from the window seat? (if the seat next to you is in a lie-flat position).. Basically, wondering which seat I should choose for my night flight from BOM - MUC.
