Line 1:
==Unix-Like Subcategory?==
Might it be worthwhile to add a "Unix-like" subcategory? The majority of OSs in use today (counting the number of systems available, not the number actually in use) are Unix-like to some degree:
*[[Linux]]
Line 11 ⟶ 12:
: Not that big of a problem, really. First, categories aren't mutually exclusive. You could move all of the members into "Operating Systems/All" and then tag them with additional categories like "Operating Systems/UNIX-like", "Operating Systems/VMS-like", "Operating Systems/DOS-like" as desired. Though if you wanted to do that, I'd suggest a requirement that a rationale or explanation be included in-page for, e.g. [[Windows 95]]. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 01:19, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
:You would have to treat POSIX compliance carefully, as some versions of Windows [[wp:POSIX#POSIX_for_Windows|add POSIX features]], and the idea might be to separate Unix-like, from Windows. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 04:36, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
