> Currently we say:

> Many applications cannot handle Date values before January 1, 1900. Some applications can handle dates for the years 1900 and on, but include a known defect: they incorrectly presume that 1900 was a leap year (1900 was not a leap year). Applications may reproduce the 1900-as-leap-year bug for compatibility purposes, but should not.

> Rob Weir suggests that we should not make editorial comments about bugs, compatibility, etc. I think that is a good point.
