That's quite a nice table. Much appreciated! - Alex On Thu, Jan 17, 2019 at 9:00 PM alan--- via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

How about an overview class of weird/unusual Unixes? I know there's one for Amiga; what others are off the beaten path?
I suspect 50 years of UNIX will be a theme this year across the show circuit. A group of us is planning a broad exhibit for Southeast. I did a little digging earlier in the week and put together a quick spreadsheet of distinct threads of UNIX, *NIX, and UNIX-like operating systems. I realize this can be a bit of a religious discussion so please don't make me regret speaking up/out. I also don't want the discussion to be epic. I realize I have HeliOS listed as one line same as Linux or BSD. Clearly a universal difference in scope. And I understand NetBSD != OpenBSD != FreeBSD, etc. But I was after variant groupings not every derivative; otherwise I would exceed the 1M row limit in Excel! So if you have specific feedback, maybe reply to me off list and I'll aggregate it and feed a new revision back in a couple days. Otherwise, chime in here as I would appreciate some general feedback :)
