Romance family tree

Hello!

A while ago, we discussed the possibility of making a family tree of
the Romance languages. Well, here is an effort. It's based on lot's
of info I have compiled over the years. Yet, it is far from complete.
Some significant languages may have been omitted, while other
languages listed may have consisted of an idea, a short description,
or a sentence only. At some point, I may add it to the website too.
Anyway, see for yourself. Natlangs are capitalised:
