+i like your proposal the best, but with small addendum:
+
+no QA: (but often tested, so this works out ok) (autogenerated?)
+2  - boot (32/64)
+2  - boot nonfree (32/64)
+
+install:
+1  - dual arch CD nonfree
+2  - DVD installer with nonfree option (32/64)
+
+live:
+1  - liveDVD/USB dual arch KDE nonfree
+1  - liveDVD/USB dual arch Gnome nonfree
+2  - liveCD KDE english only (32)
+2  - liveCD Gnome english only (32)
+
+total 9 iso's to be tested, of which 3 of them will need more testing due to 
+dual arch; (and perhaps the nonfree option will need a bit of extra testing 
+too in the DVD in the 2 DVD installer isos).
+
+i don't think it can be any shorter than this...
+
+Personally only 3 isos are important:
+- dual arch CD nonfree (it's only for advanced users, mostly used for servers, 
+so need hardware raid firmware and network firmware; don't care about graphic 
+drivers; and i also can use it as a rescue CD, that means i only need one CD 
+in my coat inner pocket at all times)
+- 64bit DVD install (preferably nonfree) for desktop installs.
+- boot nonfree (64bit) for PXE installs and such
+
+
+after this,if people want more and there IS resources, people can make more 
+iso's like with edu selection or whatnot...
+
+
+speaking of dual arch CD; i'm missing iproute2 & bridge-utils (commands: ip 
+(mostly for vlan support) and brctl) in the rescue
