Default Creating Custom Roms

I'm planning on getting the galaxy i9000 when its available in Canada, but I was wondering how I would go about making custom roms for the phone once I get it.

a basic way to do it would be to just download an existing ROM (say, MCR's one) and extract the file. Delete/add the apps you want and make sure the update script and build.prop will still work. Once you're done, zip it, sign it and flash it. It's pretty easy.

...however, I would like to know how to build Android from the AOSP source for a plain vanilla distro. Some of the Samsung additions really get on my nerves, and I'm positive that a vanilla Froyo (or even Eclair) build would run rings around the stock SGS.

...anyone know?
