I would like read at OSNews an article detailing the OS timeline includying all at moment existings OS and main characteristics.

I had never heard about AROS and it exists too much years ago.

It would be interesting read about the main branches begining with DOS, Unix, Others?, Continuing With OS2, Windows and its Versions, Novell Netware, Linux and all BSD flavors, Solaris, IRIX, BEOS, QNX, Amiga, MacOS and Now MacOS X, Minuet OS, MicroNano OS, Atheos, SkyOS, NewOS. The clones and variants AIX, FreeDos, Openbeos, eComstation, AROS, Lindows, Cosmoe, BlueEyedOS, Syllable and all other unknow OS projects. Also may be cool know which ones are comercial, experimental, hobbist, open source, Desktop Oriented, Server Oriented, Media Oriented, Multipurpose, 32Bit, 64Bit, Multithreading, Filesystem, Multiprocesor, Hardware Architecture, etc.

This will help to the community view from a wide point of view all options, and may be it will help understand why all this variants exist.

This info and a resume of each OS may be permanent in this site. The links Help, but it's much more out there.

Thanks.
