What would it take to remaster DSL to only have Firefox, Java and Flash? I need a Kiosk that only has a web browser (people can go anywhere however) Also I would need it to restart the browser if closed and if idle for more than 10 mins.

Any ideas? There was a distro that did this a while ago but it is no longer updated.

Why not follow the instructions they made, combined with a current DSL?

There is nothing special in this, just a regular remaster with some apps and customization.
I think the project you mentioned was this:
