I think that Contrib with version upgrades is a way to go. There were some people that wanted to help with Contrib, but dropped when they realized that no version upgrades were allowed there.
I have the same opinion - make Contrib a repository with less strict rules than Factory has.
If we decide to go this way, I see two 'subpossibilities' :
3a) freeze/branch Contrib when new openSUSE release is out (i.e. openSUSE:11.1:Contrib), but allow version upgrades if there's a bug
I'd vote for this.
or
3b) do not branch Contrib at all, but build it for older openSUSE versions (like we are now building for 11.1).
IMHO the smaller devel projects are more suitable for this. I'd expect that packages built for multiple distros at once won't be tested that good on older distros. Pushing such packages to end users via generic repository is quite dangerous.
