Yes, this add on CD idea is next phase in our Project. So package which are too big eg. Eclipse . will be on add on CD . Also I expect students will use this Distro as Live CD for first few weeks . Once they got enough confidence then they will install it . In that case install+addon CD will give more advantage to students .
