Talk:List of BSD operating systems

message: A list of all the BSDs I've found and have been active recentlyish.
Terminology - I wasn't sure what words to use to distinguish things like Free/Net/OpenBSD, and those based on them: 'distribution' indicates forking in the Linux world. These 'redistributions' usually aren't forks.
Other BSDs - not sure about Mac OSX and Darwin etc. Also I'd like this to be a list of existing BSDs, not stuff like BSD-386 etc.
Other wiki pages - The Comparison of BSD operating systems page has many of these but not all: I wanted to list as many as possible without getting involved in all the details necessary for that comparison table.
Please feel free to make additions. --

replies: text: Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, Ging and Debian GNU/NetBSD are not BSD operating systems as they are GNU variants. I'm not sure about Gentoo/*BSD. -- mms 20:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  GNU/k*BSD are hybrids: GNU-derived userlands on top of BSD kernels. Therefore they could arguably be categorised as either GNU or BSD OSs. Letdorf (talk) 14:23, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I have removed QuackyBSD again. There is as of yet no sign that it is anything more than an obscure April Fool's joke—a presumably exact copy of the FreeBSD 11.1 codebase (minus post-release security patches) with “QuackyBSD” substituted for “FreeBSD” in a few places.

message: A few of the entries, I've noticed, are more sales pitches than descriptions (e.g. "Whether you want...") - and I wasn't sure about this, or if it needed a warning at the top like I've seen before.
