Customising New Team Build Type creation wizard.

That sounds like like a great idea. What I would suggest is that you simply create a Visual Studio add-in that launches your own UI to do what you want. You won't get our wizard pages, but if you do it yourself, you can customize whatever you like.
The version 1 wizard simply generates a very simple MSBuild project file in a very specific location: $\<teamproject>\TeamBuildTypes\<buildTypeName>\TfsBuild.proj. It also creates the WorkspaceMapping.xml and the TfsBuild.rsp file. If your wizard creates these files in a folder under TeamBuildTypes, a new build type will be recongnized by Team Build.
Hope that helps,

Hi Jason,
I am basically planning to extend the Create New Build Type wizard with features like edit option (editing the already generated build type) and have some custom property group and item group values to be configured through the wizard at the time of creation.Other than PropertyGroups like BuildDirectoryPath,DropLocation,RunTest,RunCodeAnalysis etc,I want to have some more PropertyGroups and ItemGroup values to be configured and also override few Targets with custom tasks through wizard than going and editing the TfsBuild.proj file to have all these custom things to be done. Please provide some pointers.

Currently this is not possible. We are considering this for a future release.
If you could elaborate on what you want to do, perhaps we can make some suggestions.
Thanks, Jason
