Just talking to Lance and Johnny online, and we feel the best way forward might be to add an Media-Updates/ repo on the iso's itself - then list both the local media updates as well as mirror.centos.org updates repo's in the anaconda screen, both disabled.
We feel this gives us the max wins in each direction ( but will slightly increase the data size on the last cd, as packages from cd-1 will move to cd-2 etc.
I will still try and ensure that a minimum install is possible using only cd-1, but cant promise that.

+1 to this if we can still produce a single-CD minimal install. IMO the value if a one-disc install is higher than the value of a release that contains the initial update set. In a month or two there will be additional updates to apply anyway, so it doesn't seem prudent to sacrifice the one-disc install for the life of the release to gain a (very) small convenience up front. Just my .02
if we can get a few more people voting this way, then I feel we have a decision on this issue.
