Hi Geoffroy: Personally, I like the idea of "excluded packages" than the current idea of "default packages set".
But anyways, if we are going to go forward with the "default packages set", I think we should at least divi it up into "sets" -- for instance, by default, core packages should be implicitly included in the default package set (i.e. should not have entries in each XML file), since if core packages do not work with a specified Linux distribution/arch, it should not be considered supported, as the basic operation will not work. This will eliminate XML info duplication between the various distribution/arch XML files. The XML files should only contain info on additional opkg support (included packages). However, whether this information should be parsed in this "default packages set" or each package's config.xml file -- I do not have preference either way.
