A Mind Map of Linux Distributions

Howard writes "All about Linux has posted a Mind Map of GNU/Linux distributions. This map of GNU/Linux hopes to throw light on the current GNU/Linux distributions and their relationships with each other. Though the map doesn't show the historically significant but now redundant distros like SLS, Yggdrasil and the erstwhile Red Hat, it shows many of the more prominent GNU/Linux distributions."

    You are wrong. In Gentoo community, Debian is completely irrelevant, not critical, as well as Red Hat is. Both technical superiority and community management makes Gentoo outstanding both for bleeding edge development AND hardened production. For example, does NSA use Debian? No, they are backing and contributing Gentoo with selinux. In mission critical systems, marketing propaganda (as in Red Hat or Microsoft) does not count.
