It may not be a better starting point for our specific goals, but it is a
better starting point overall.  The goal now is to create a core
distribution upon with SEUL will be based, but to release the core to the
public with the intent of moving other distributions onto the common core.
Debian is the logical choice for this, as they are already starting to
move in that direction.  We will get the support and cooperation we need,
whereas with RedHat we aren't likely to make much of a dent.

Someone did post a review of Debian a while ago.  Please check the
archives.
