^- about this...
> + (description

^- ... and this I am not so sure, as
the man pages state there has been a
rewrite since then, so maybe just
"inspired by"? It could be the same as
with neomutt.
Wikipedia has more on this:
cwm (Calm Window Manager)[1] is a stacking window manager for the
X Window System. While it is primarily developed as a part of
OpenBSD's base system,[2] portable versions are available on
other Unix-like operating systems.
Development of cwm started from patches to evilwm by Marius
Aamodt Eriksen.[3] To ease the implementation of new features,
cwm was eventually rewritten using some code from 9wm.[4] The
last release by the original author came out in August 2005.[3]
In April 2007, cwm was imported into OpenBSD source tree.[5] By
January 2008, a substantial part of the original source code,
including all of the 9wm code, was rewritten.[6]
cwm has been distributed with OpenBSD since version 4.2, where it
replaced wm2.[7] A third-party Linux port also exists.[8]
... so I'd say it's not a fork but maintained by OpenBSD, in
OpenBSD's source tree. For reference:
