	19:54, 16 November 2017	870 × 660 (57 KB)	Oknazevad	Reverted to version as of 21:42, 9 October 2017 (UTC) Precisely because the GNU claims are controversial, the ugly two-colored bar is POV.
	13:00, 27 October 2017	870 × 680 (63 KB)	Paianni	Reverted to version as of 11:37, 25 May 2017 (UTC) GNU/Linux issue is controversial, so I represented both in the same box to respect GNU's claim to the legacy of their tools. Formatting is cleaner also.
	21:42, 9 October 2017	870 × 660 (57 KB)	Oknazevad	Reverted to version as of 21:37, 9 October 2017 (UTC) Actually, the color change was a good call.
	21:39, 9 October 2017	850 × 610 (32 KB)	Oknazevad	Reverted to version as of 07:08, 8 December 2015 (UTC) This is meant to be a quick overview, not a comprehensive accounting. Especially when the GNU claim on Linux is suspect at best. The more recent versions look like crap, to be blunt.

	18:33, 21 August 2013	850 × 610 (71 KB)	Isacdaavid	Carrying on Jvgotopo's maintenance, more updates for some operating systems. Inverted direction between Darwin and OS X to show the real dependency relationship. Dashed lines for indirect legacy used more consistently across the tree.

	23:59, 10 July 2012	727 × 611 (58 KB)	Isacdaavid	More consistent style: some authors were removed in previous versions but some still remained; authors and incomplete systems seemed to be semiotically equal.
	23:42, 14 September 2011	727 × 611 (62 KB)	W Nowicki	Clarify also that Unixware was the evolution of System V, effectively not an offshoot of an earlier one like HPUX etc.
