Find the compiz package now in the openSUSE X11:XGL project, on which
Jigish / Cyberorg added me as maintainer :^)

For some reason, compiz is currently in "blocked" state on
XOrg7_SUSE_Linux_10.1, but it has been compiled for the same release in
my home directory home:mhopf.

For download:

http://software.opensuse.org/download/X11:/XGL/
  or
http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/mhopf/

Unfortunately, the XOrg7_SUSE_Linux_10.1 packages built in my home
project don't show up yet. I guess this needs some time.

BTW - Jigish, I think the SL10.1xorg7, SLE10, SLE_10, and
SUSE_Linux_Factory directories should be deleted on the download side of
X11:XGL, do you agree?

AFAIK so far most of the additional plugins (if not all) do not
compile/run for upstream compiz at the moment.
