Wait. Is that really related to suckless.org? I've just checked that suckless.org Unix tools are called "9base", not "Sbase", and is different code. Could someone explain that?

http://git.suckless.org/9base/tree/cal/cal.c http://git.2f30.org/sbase/tree/cal.c

http://tools.suckless.org/

The sbase page on suckless.org is here:

http://core.suckless.org/sbase

> 9base is a port of various original Plan 9 tools for Unix, based on plan9port.

While sbase is supposed to be POSIX-compliant.

Since that page links to

[1]: http://git.suckless.org/sbase/

instead of

[2]: http://git.2f30.org/sbase/

I'm guessing [2] is a mirror, and [1] is the original Git repository. They appear to have the same content.

On IRC, I heard that suckless.org and 2f30 are indeed related.
