SCO OpenServer

Darwin is the Open Source foundation for Mac OS X, descended from NeXTStep

Derived from 4.4BSD-Lite and 386BSD. This table does not include external packages from /usr/pkg.

Forked from NetBSD in 1995. Security emphasis. This table does not include external packages from /usr/ports.

Fujitsu Siemens. Originally called SINIX. Based on DC/OSX from Pyramid, SINIX

SCO UnixWare 7.0.1& SCO UnixWare 7.1.1 became Caldera Open Unix and later became SCO again. SVR4-based.

Solaris 2.0-2.6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

from Siemens, and SVR4. To be replaced with Solaris by 2008.

OpenSolaris (SunOS 5.*)
