-* The :func:`time.asctime`, :func:`time.mktime`, and

-  after 1900.  Now, when :attr:`time.accept2dyear` is false, the

+  can be used without guesswork:
+
+  >>> time.accept2dyear = 1         # guess whether 11 means 11 or 2011
+  >>> time.asctime((11, 1, 1, 12, 34, 56, 4, 1, 0))
+  'Fri Jan  1 12:34:56 2011'
+  >>> time.accept2dyear = 0         # use the full range of allowable dates
+  >>> time.asctime((11, 1, 1, 12, 34, 56, 4, 1, 0))
+  'Fri Jan  1 12:34:56 11'
+
+  Several functions now have significantly expanded date ranges.  When
+  :attr:`time.accept2dyear` is false, the :func:`time.asctime` function will
+  accept any year that fits in a C int, while the :func:`time.mktime` and
+  :func:`time.strftime` functions will accept the full range supported by the
+  corresponding operating system functions.
