Hi,

Yes I have come across it and wouldn't recomend it. To the users eye
it looks very good, and seems to work ok. However, as I understand it,
it  uses some very hackish scripts and different repositories than
ubuntu. The k/ubuntu irc channels do not support it so you dont get
the benefit of the greater ubuntu community.

Hope this helps.
