BSD was the Unix distribution created by the CSRG.

2.11 BSD - A still-maintained version for PDP-11s
3.0 BSD - Derived from 32v, including a real virtual memory system
4.0 BSD - A vastly improved 3.0
4.1 BSD - These were mostly betas testing new filesystems & the TCP/IP protocol.
4.2 BSD - The first shipping version of BSD with TCP/IP, FFS & termcap for the VAX.
4.3 BSD - A version of pre-POSIX BSD, for the VAX.
4.4 BSD - Did this version ever ship?
Net/1 - The TCP/IP source, and other programs free of the AT&T copyrite
Net/2 - Almost an entire release of all the source. This was the contention in the AT&T vs CSRG lawsuit.
4.4 BSD Lite - This was the result of the aformentioned lawsuit. This was 'lite' in that it removed the offending 6 files.
