Review: Ututo-e, the "only free distribution"

Ututo-e is a Gentoo-based distribution developed in Argentina. Of all the distributions listed on DistroWatch, Ututo-e is the only distribution endorsed by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). Since he first noticed Ututo-e while visiting Argentina last August, Richard Stallman has described it as "the only free GNU/Linux distro I know of" -- an endorsement that promises to boost its user base the way that John F. Kennedy's endorsement of the James Bond books boosted their sales. In addition, the FSF hosts Ututo-e on its FTP site.

That Ututo-e contains only free software is easy to verify. The project maintains a set of links on its news page that list all the packages included in platform-specific versions of the distribution, and also highlights its licences. But how does Ututo-e rate as a distribution? What is it like in everyday use? These are questions that have yet to be answered, at least in English.
