dcpremex is right ; your best bet is to pick a spot outside of the customs area. If I remember correctly, there are two 'exits' from baggage claim at CDG1 : doors 2 and 36. They both open onto a common meeting-point area with cafe and shop. Perhaps Blair or another Parisien could suggest an easily found spot for a rendezvous because depending on the time of day, this area might be swamped with meeters and greeters.
