UTUTO versus Ututo nomenclature
The Ututo project frequently uses the term "UTUTO" to describe the project's title and operating system distribution and in several other areas. It is not an
acronym , as they are often used in free software projects. Usage of "UTUTO" in substitution for "Ututo" is purely aesthetic, and is not technical by any means.UTUTO-Get
The emergence of a highly usable package management system for Ututo has been the topic of many discussions over a few years. Pablo Rizzo has designed UTUTO-Get, an easy tool for maintaining a package database while using Ututo modeled after
Debian 's powerful APT.Ututo GNU/FreeBSD project
Along with its usual development of a GNU/Linux distribution, the Ututo team has begun working on an operating system using the FreeBSD kernel with a set of GNU userland utilities.Fact|date=September 2008
