In OE, the contrib repos are used for staging and submitting changes (via pull requests) and get cleared out regularly. People shouldn't be using them for anything permanent, so unless someone points you to a branch in the contrib repo to test something you probably shouldn't use anything in it as it could be unfinished and/or vanish at any time.
