There is another project that may be closer to what you want. The [1]community of [2]Puppy Linux has spawned a [3]project named "Dpup" that combines the design goals of Puppy with the package archives of Debian. A parallel project named "Upup" uses the Ubuntu repositories. The goal is a small (around 120MB) base distribution with full apt-get or synaptic access to the thousands of Debian (or Ubuntu) packages. Both are in active development and have images available for testing. See the community [1]discussions for announcements.
