Karanbir, As the potential base of machines that might need the CD-ROM-sized ISOs shrinks, how about this as a viable alternative: Distribute the DVD (single layer, two ISOs), and dual-layer DVD (one ISO) together with a script that would be able to split these into a set of CD-ROM-sized ISOs, and MD5/SHA1 checksums (perhaps based on the result of the same script run by CentOS group). This would allow downstream mirrors (who might serve a different population of users) to still offer the smaller downloads to their users who do not have DVD-ROM drives, while reducing the need to store all the possible combinations at the main disribution and mirror sites serving the "majority" population. Cheers!
