Methods to Customize Debian for our needs. Write a huge report on point 3 first. discuss... If that is fine then proceed. 90% of your effort should be here. > 4. Better place to host the project ( sourceforge, github, ..etc) This is trivial. How do you intend to maintain it? Remastering distros is easy and maintenance too (if planned properly).
