It may have been a novelty back in the day but IMO calendar.history has nothing to do with BSD, computers or anything else of interest to FreeBSD. At the very least this file should be moved to ports or better yet, removed entirely. I simply don't see the point of it being in the tree and distributed with an O/S, any O/S. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <cy@FreeBSD.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <cy@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few.
