Ututo-e: "The only free distribution" revisited
http://os.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/05/03/1831235&from=rss

    A year ago, I reviewed Ututo-e, an Argentinian distribution based
on
    Gentoo. Ututo-e is known mainly as the only GNU/Linux distribution
    endorsed by Richard Stallman and the Free Software Foundation
(FSF).
    This endorsement is based on the fact that Ututo-e, in the words of
    Peter Brown of the FSF, "makes a commitment to follow the
philosophy of
    the FSF as to what makes a distribution ethically free software."
Last
    year, this endorsement seemed premature, because Ututo-e, while
    promising in some places, was buggy in many more. A year later, the
    2006 release of Ututo XS is more polished, especially in its
desktop
    and selection of administration tools, but its English version
still
    falls below the standard of leading distributions such as Debian or
    Fedora Core.
