Re: Could be considered a *Debian Blend* a CDD with packages from diferent repos

Please do use the "blend" term, and then just avoid adding "pure" too

CDD is the older term which turned out to mean different things for
different people. So even if it seems to you that CDD more closely
matches what you are trying to do, then beware that most likely that
other term really is not a closer match, but is just more elastic: You
know yourself what it is you are working on, so a term should not only
be descriptive to yourself but more importantly to others that you want
to tell what you are working on - if you say "we are building a CDD"
then maybe they hear "we are building a Debian-internal sub-distro",
maybe they hear "we are building a custom distribution" and maybe they
hear "we are building a CD snapshot of a set of Debian packages".
If instead you say "we are building a Debian Blend" and perhaps even
clarify that "it will however not be a Debian Pure Blend, as we need
this and that non-Debian parts" then I believe you are less ambiguous.
OK, thanks again
