Excerpt from an interview RMS had with OFB's Timothy R. Butler
recently
OFB: What GNU/Linux distribution do you presently recommend if
someone comes up to you and asks how to get started with Free
Software? Is there one that meets the FSF's criteria completely?
RMS: Yes, there is. It is called UTUTO, and it is developed by
committed free software activists in Argentina.
The existence of this distribution is a big step forward for the free
software movement. For many years there was literally no GNU/Linux
distribution that I could ethically recommend to the general public.
Most distributions contained non-free software; the few exceptions
distributed non-free software from their sites.
