                           ^- about this...

                          ^- ... 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:
