Sounds like a cool idea, with a minor issue. The contents of the CDs and DVDs can (and do) vary a little from arch to arch. But we could easily do

http://packages.debian.org/stable/cd1-i386/

etc. If anybody's interested, I can easily generate package lists from the CD contents and put them somewhere accessible; just let me know when/where/what format is best.
