As many of you know for a publishing site "save as template" is not supported by MS. Although there are hack to save the publishing site as template, it is not guaranteed to work properly.

And here is my situation i need to have some site templates(there will be many customization in the template), so that in my portal, content-authors must have "X Portal Sub-Site" choice in the "Create Site" menu?

What is the appropriate way for publishing sites?
