What is the difference between “technical depth” and “technical breadth”?

My boss has asked me to basically write my own recommendation for a promotion which is long overdue. He asked me to describe my "technical depth" in one section, then my "technical breadth" in another, along with some other categories that I can easily address.

I'm just not sure how these two are different.

If it helps, I work in our consulting group, implementing complex systems using Linux, Virtualization, Clustering, SANs and other Enterprise solutions. I also do a bit of coding and other open source projects.

Open Question: building own distribution of Linux from scratch?

I'm in a project based Computer science course and I need to come up with a project. I'd like to build my own version of linux using as much of my own code as possible and I'm trying to figure out if this is feasible(to finish by late May, early June). On top of that, what sort of language would be best to do this?(I know C and Java). Should I dual-boot a distribution of Linux on my computer as a starting spot? Which one? Thanks for your help.
