Shared source[edit]

Interesting diagram but not sure about in what sense you're talking about 'shared source' for the original unixes. Nowadays this term is used by Microsoft to mean something different, so maybe the wording needs to be changed, or explained. Lofty00 (talk) 21:18, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Missing OS's[edit]

GNU's Not Unix is an operating system developed in 1983. It was the first free UNIX-like operating system. Felipe1982 (talk) 06:14, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]


IRIX is notably missing from this diagram. It's very nice otherwise. 68.40.167.149 (talk) 21:46, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Ideally, I'd love to see all of the UNIX variants in Wikipedia represented. In particular, in addition to the two mentioned above, I'd like to see Ultrix and DG/UX included on the chart.

GNU is interesting. In keeping with the spirit of the chart, The Hurd must be mentioned, along with its ancestry. The GNU project as a whole, however, consists of a huge suite of software, most of which has been ported to (and often bundled with) other operating systems, including many that are in no way related to UNIX. Can that be accurately represented in this diagram? Shamino (talk) 19:56, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
