I've created a similar image for RDF offshoots:

I contest this. TAF gathered a few members from RDF's diaspora as well. :P
And that's what the chart show, doesn't it?
There should also be a two way arrow between Ratz and RatS

I've updated the diagram to include Herd of Cats and the beginning and ending dates of the various boards.

Beginning date: for RDF, here and ratskep, I used the day that the first non-admin members registered, while I had to guess it from the oldest accessible threads in TAF and Herd of Cats.

Ending date: for RDF, I used the day when it was officially closed to new posts.

The arrows indicate direction of departure to create a board; they do not indicate which directions people moved after that.
