Hmm, did you remove too much documentation?

This, for instance, still applies, doesn't it?

- * KDateTime's interface is designed to be as compatible as possible with that

- * QDateTime lacks virtual methods, KDateTime is not inherited from QDateTime,
- * but instead is implemented using a private QDateTime object.

Only the stuff about the date range restriction should be removed.
