There is also a Windows section on the Live CD now, which contains some 
FOSS for Windows and some information. (see: 
http://www.theopencd.net/testing/ for a demo.) Please test this part 
too. It should autostart when you insert the Live CD under Windows.

The CD label could have some basic info as you suggest, and then refer 
to documentation available when browsing from Windows. Suggestions for 
appropriate text is welcome.
