Jason B,
I think what you want in not here if you want to market Fedora under your own ideas for
consumers to pick and choose what they want like Slax and you sell it, well you would need
a core and a auto build system for compiling and then have a web site to link people to
there wants let them view all packages pick and choose. Or offer your services to choose
for them. And sell the ISO or disk through the mail. Then your not actually charging for
the OS, but for the job of getting all together.
EX:: Graphics programs for artists
3d Software Ink scape, Gimp, Blender, Synfig etc for animators.

Isn't Fedora already doing it? There's also Fedora
Spin,
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/ . If you are talking about
like eeeDora
type? or you are talking about a spin like centOS off
Redhat type? .....
May be you describe a little more of what is in your mind
of this
distributor spin or you talking about tools to create
distributor spin
whereby allow any creator have the freedom to place
custom proprietor
software of his choice?
My opinion is, any created spin based on fedora core that
consisted
closed source or propietor software should not e Fedora
Distribution
anymore.
