I would put AIX closer to the BSD family and Solaris towards SysV.

Yes, Solaris definitely belongs to Unix tree, not BSD. Azrael Nightwalker (talk) 11:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well. the whole point of SVR4 (Solaris 2, UnixWare &c) is that it is the merge of ideas from BSD and earlier AT&T Unixes HughesJohn (talk) 10:59, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think OpenBSD was originally a fork of NetBSD, no? KMeyer (talk) 04:30, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd use the correct "Mac OS X" in this graph. And I wouldn't separate Darwin from OSX either. -- Henriok (talk) 20:33, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also change Mac OS 10.4.6 to Mac OS 10.5.4. Mac OS 10.5.4 is the current version of Mac OS. --frogger3140 (talk) 22:00, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Geez, do we need to update this every time Apple releases an update to Mac OS X? I say just remove the version number. It only serves to confuse when it isn't updated (i.e., I was wondering, what was so special about Mac OS X 10.4.6 in terms of UNIX history?).

Also, it should say, "Mac OS X", not "Mac OS". "Mac OS" refers to the Classic Mac OS (9 and earlier), which was not based on UNIX. And another idea is to put dates on each bar, so that you don't have to try and read down from the timeline at the top. Asmeurer (talk ♬ contribs) 23:45, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Just wanted to suggest the same. Please correct Mac OS to Mac OS X.--79.111.171.117 (talk) 12:18, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

See File_talk:Unix_history-simple.svg#Merging_various_Unix_history_diagrams

The chart has "SunOS (Stanford)" listed from approximately 1982 on. What does this mean? To the best of my knowledge, "SunOS" was always a Sun Microsystems product, introduced as "Sun Unix" in 1982, the year the company was founded, and then branded as "SunOS" starting in 1983 (see article, which includes citations). As far as I know, it has never had any connection to Stanford; Bill Joy was from Berkeley.

Also, the company name is given as "SUN" in the next bar. Proper name is "Sun" (not all caps).

Also also, there should be some indication (good luck! :-)) that Solaris is actually a System V / BSD / Xenix merge (i.e. SVR4). --NapoliRoma (talk) 14:28, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone know what software made this diagram? It's beautiful. aszymanik speak! 00:28, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
