.. XXX
* The ``strftime()`` method of :class:`~datetime.date` and
:class:`~datetime.datetime` are no longer restricted to years >=
1900. The new supported year range is [1000, 9999]. (Contributed
by Alexander Belopolsky and Victor Stinner in :issue:`1777412`)
.. XXX Add a section on time module.
* The :func:`time.asctime` and :func:`time.ctime` functions no
longer call C library asctime. (Contributed by Alexander
Belopolsky in :issue:`8013`.)
* Changed the rules for using 2-digit years in time tuples. The
:func:`time.asctime`, :func:`time.ctime` and
:func:`time.strftime` functions will now format any year when
``time.accept2dyear`` is false and will accept years >= 1000
otherwise. :func:`time.mktime` and :func:`time.strftime` now
accepts full range supported by the OS. Conversion of 2-digit
years to 4-digit is deprecated. (Contributed by Alexander
Belopolsky and Victor Stinner in :issue:`10827`.)
