There is one open question: contrib-updates.
What about updates for single packages in that repository? If the repository is frozen after the release, we need an additional repository just for packages containing bugfixes and security fixes. Who will maintain this additional repository? Who will review the packages submitted there? Should there be patches like for the official openSUSE packages available?
The buildservice can't generate patches (yet).
I would prefer to keep updates to the minimum - only critical bugfixes and critical security fixes.
Ack.
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.
The downside of a separate repository is that users need to be aware of it and subscribe both repositories, otherwise they won't receive security updates. I think the following should work: When freezing the repository, add <publish><disable/></publish> to the project metadata, and when updating a single package, add <publish><enable/></publish> to the metadata of that package. That should hopefully recreate the repo with that single package updated (if it doesn't work, we need to fix the buildservice ;-)).
