@Jc3s5h You are right that date conversion only makes sense in a certain range. 
I think the software should disallow day-precision dates in prehistoric eras 
(certainly everything before -10000). There are no records that could possibly 
justify this precision, and the question of calendar conversion becomes moot. 
Do you think 4713BCE would be enough already, or do you think there could be a 
reason to find more complex algorithms to get calendar support that extends 
further to the past?
