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.
