The contrib directory is in the distribution tarball and in CVS.

Both are available at http://sf.net/projects/nagiosplug

If you are loolong for a specific contributed) plugin, as is the case
here, there's a hyperlink for 'CVS' at the top of the nagiosplug page.
Click that link and you will come to another page that allows you to
browse the CVS repository. On the next page, select the 'nagiosplug'
module, then select 'contrib', then pick up the code.

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/nagiosplug/nagiosplug/contrib/
