This sounds exactly like plain old Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS,
with added EL-5 package support from RPM Fusion.  In other words, this
seems like a somewhat duplicative effort.  If I'm not mistaken, you
could simply provide people a kickstart file they could use with the
existing CentOS and RPM Fusion libraries to do this.
