Point 4 on your list will not only require looking at information about FreeBSD but at its alternatives. When you are done with the assignment, please put it up on a website and post a link to it back here. Many members of this mailing list would enjoy reading it. People may even be willing to comment on drafts (check to see whether that is alright with the person who assigned this project.) Best wishes with your assignment.
