I want to get a list which coins are based on the original source code of Nxt. All I know is that NAS and Node are based on Nxt. Are there more? Is there a list somewhere?
Yes, there are more and yes, there is a list ... but not as you'd know it, Jim; it can be constructed (see below) from the data in the DOACC RDF graph:

NEM is definitely not based on Nxt.
Its distributed consensus is using Proof of Importance, not Nxt's Proof of Stake.

http://allcoinsnews.com/2015/04/07/nem-qa/When NEM first started, the Nxt code was not nearly as clean as it is now. The developers at Nxt have done a lot to clean it up and made it a lot tighter over the last year. When we first looked at the code and we thought about what we really wanted NEM to be, we soon realised that to get the feature list we wanted, we would have to alter the entire Nxt code base. We concluded that we would be better off just building the code from scratch to support the features that we wanted. These features include the client-server web architecture design, separating the NIS (NEM Infrastructure Server) and NCC (NEM Community Client), a local wallet instead of brain wallet passphrases, POI, multisig accounts, transaction spam protection, and Eigentrust++, along with a few features that are yet to be built.
