Hi all,

Both contrib wiki page and the candidate packages wiki page are
growing rapidly, which is a good sign.

Links:
http://en.opensuse.org/Contrib
http://en.opensuse.org/Contrib/packages

However, We still haven't really started. I think we should.

There is one open question: contrib-updates.

I would prefer to keep updates to the minimum - only critical bugfixes
and critical security fixes.

As for distribution - I don't know if we need a separate branch for
updates, but I think yes, having separate branch for updates is a good
idea. Not sure what we will implement.

Any ideas on this should be handled?
