I have not yet used contrib: http://en.opensuse.org/Contrib
It seems to be gaining packages. (autossh is one I requested via bugzilla be added to OS 11.2 and it got put in Contrib instead.)
And I've never really understood what Packman is. It obviously holds a lot more than problematic codecs, etc.
Can someone explain how they will work together? This is a difficult Question. A Few of the openSUSE/Novell Team Members are packaging in Packman. But i think so: Contrib as Member of the Build Service is near by OpenSUSE/Novell. OpenSUSE Build Service as whole System is a Community Project, but it is near by Novell/openSUSE than Packman. But Packman has high Quality Packages, as Contrib, too...
