Jumpstart is an installation profile that aims in getting a drupal site ready for development in very few steps.
It enables some common contrib modules (views, backup_migrate, token etc) and it downloads devel and devel_themer when used with drush make. The idea is that with a few clicks the developer has a drupal site to build upon instead of enabling the modules mentioned above.
To my knowledge there is no other project similar to this.
In the future I hope that more and more developers (and users) get acquaintated with this and enrich it so that it should serve as the starting point in drupal development. This is the reason that it is version agnostic.
