I don't want to discourage you, but your distro has to be fantastic and excellent if you expect that people should use it.

Primarily, people will worry about the support. If you are an individual or a small company, that would be difficult for sure. What have you thought about that?

Secondly, you can expect support via forums, etc. only if there are many users. So that is a vicious circle. If there is no support, there are no users. But if there are no users, how will support base ever develop.

IMO, if one of the popular mags review your distro and gives it a good rating, it has some scope. Making and maintaining a distro is not a easy job. How will you survive financially?
