Other distros (Arch, Fedora 22) - guide
Hi Corbin, and others.
First of all, sorry for writing this as an issue, but I'm not sure how to contribute. I wrote you an email asking about a Fedora update, but eventually figured it out. It would probably be a lot easier if this was open-source as Debian version is, but no matter. Anyway I wrote a guide:

on my blog on how to add new distros to GNURoot on the fly.
Obviously, this is your project, so if you have any complaints about my post, please inform me.
Thank you for this project, it was really fun playing with it. Cheers!
Cool! Thanks nmilosev!

This is great! I didn't get back to you right away because, I am still thinking about how and which distros to support going forward (and I was on vacation for a little over a week). I am still completing my vision for GNURoot Debian. Once done, it should be very easy for myself or the community to support other distros.
Thanks!
I think that it is easiest to just provide a way (a bash script?) for installing other distros, when already inside Debian, and then they can appear in the app menu. I could maybe help you with writing a few of them. However you decide :)
Thanks again for this project!
Kind regards.
