Long time ago I came to know about Linux Family Tree graph.

Most of the images are in png format. If somebody want to add a new distro
inside
So here is a solution :
One can comeup with writing xml file for Distro information like
<Distro id="fedora11">
<name>Fedora</name>
<version>11</version>
<oldversion>fedora10</oldversion>
<family>Fedora<family>
<dateofrelease month"6" date="9" year="2009"/>
<codename>*Leonidas*</codename>
<derivedfrom>Redhat</derivedfrom>
<updatemethod>yum</updatemethod>
<kernel>2.6.29.4</kernel>
</Distro>
one can get long list of distro's information on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_distributions
http://distrowatch.com/
If somebody can prepare such xml file for all distro then it will be easy to
convert them to svg or png format. This Distro XML file can be used used
with XSLT transformation to generate svg image. This file can be use to
process that how many distro use kernel 2.6 and up. Or one can plot number
of Distro vs time graph easily.
