Not that any of the AW hacks I know of are anywhere near the point I'm talking about. Dungeon World, for example, is still very clearly derived, even as it gets more and more independently designed.
There's also a distinction, I think, between a game that takes another as its genesis and one that takes pieces of games and adapts them into a new whole. That's a different thing entirely (and pretty much every game ever fits that category to one extent or another, so it's not a very meaningful descriptor).
