I think the background for the exodites was more along the lines that the left Eldar society before the Fall occured (i.e. their exodus predated the Craftworlders' flight by some [significant] ammount of time). According to the 2nd Ed 40k fluff, they did not follow "the path," but instead avoided the attraction of chaos through hard work in harsh environments. The fluff made them sound like native american on the great plains, following the herds and using every part of the buffalo, er, dinosaur.
Now, though, in the latest fluff (and the way alot of people talk), it seems like an Exodite is any Eldar that lives on an actual planet. There's just slightly more GW background provided for Exodite Dragon Riders than there is for the Eldar Knights (which were an even earier incarnation of the exodites).
All that said, I'm super jealous that you have all these models and I don't have any. If only someone could find GW's stash and sell them. Alas, that is not likely. I do doubt the company line stating that all the molds were destroyed. On that I claim BS.
I was paraphrasing from an old CJ, that had E40K List/Rules ... But like most of the G/W Fluff ... it's "flexible" !
