Done.  I also added them to the module-level docstring.

Along these lines, I was trying to make use of AutoDateLocator, and as
far as I can tell, there's no way to customize its behavior right now.
 So when trying to use this for doing major and minor ticks, there's
no difference.  It looks like in the get_locator() method of
AutoDateLocator, numticks is used to control what types of ticking
(yearly, monthly) is used.  Would it make sense to have this as an
attribute of self so that the user can tweak it?  Or maybe go to:

1) minticks (instead of numticks) which specifies a minimum number of
ticks that are desired,
     to select yearly, monthly, etc.
2) maxticks, which specifies a maximum number of ticks, which can be
used to calculate the interval
     (every N'th month). Right now, the rules for selecting this are hard coded.

I'm interested in hacking this up.  But since you wrote the code, I
want to make sure that going this direction makes sense to you.
