- This is bsdmainutils, a collection of userland programs from the *BSD source
- distributions. All of the program except for calendar(1) and lorder(1) come
- from FreeBSD, while these two come from OpenBSD. The calendars themselves
- mostly come from FreeBSD though, but not all.
-
- These sources were originally pacakged by Austin Donnelly
- <and1000@debian.org>, and were based heavily on bsdutils, which was
- originally put together by Ian Murdock <imurdock@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.
-
- After that, the package was maintained by Charles Briscoe-Smith
- <cpbs@debian.org>. He gathered data for the 1999-2001 calendar files from
- various sources on the Internet. Oliver Elphick, Julian Gilbey, Daniel
- Martin and Jaldhar H. Vyas provided much useful data on the various religous
- calendars.
-
- After Charles, Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> maintained the package for almost
- two years, before Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen@debian.org> took over followed by
- Graham Wilson <bob@decoy.wox.org> and Daniel Baumann <daniel@debian.org>.
- The package is now maintained by Giacomo Catenazzi <cate@debian.org> and
- Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org>.
-
- Graham Wilson replaced the FreeBSD calendar(1) with the calendar from
- OpenBSD(1), thanks to a suggestion from Matt Zimmerman. Nicolas Évrard provided
- calendar files for the EU and Belgium, and Martin Schulze provided a calendar
- with Debian dates.
-
- See /usr/share/doc/bsdmainutils/source.data.gz for more information on calendar
- sources.
