Which of these would you do first if given the choice?
Which ever one I could get help with. I have immediate need for #5 the Thunderbird plugin and #6 the Kerberos KDC on bootable CD. I've already submitted an application for an OID (on behalf of my employer) so that I can start on the postfix/LDAP/cyrus integration and management. I would really like to do #4, the backup suite for Linux, but it is probably the most ambitious of them all. I'll go into more detail about it in response to Nathan's email.
And why did you stop wanting to roll your own?
Beacuse I fell in love with gentoo. It's flexible, powerful, and I don't have to do all the crap that is involved with rolling my own. Things are looking even more promissing with gentoo's catalyst[1] which creates bootable gentoo CDs. Especially since they are adding unionfs support to them. There is also GNAP[2] which is focused on network appliances and looks like a promissing base for some projects.
