-= [UNRELEASED]
-* Fix DateTimeSelect extension support (AquisTech)
-* Relaxed Timeliness dependency version which allows for >= 0.4.0 with
-  threadsafety fix for use_us_formats and use_euro_formats for hot switching
-	in a request.
-* Add initializer to ensure Timeliness v0.4+ ambiguous date config is set
-  correctly when using `use_euro_formats` or `remove_use_formats'.
-
-Breaking Changes
-* Update Multiparameter extension to use ActiveRecord type classes with multiparameter handling
-  which stores a hash of multiparamter values as the value before type cast, no longer a mushed datetime string
-* Removed all custom plugin attribute methods and method overrides in favour using ActiveModel type system
-
-= 4.1.0 [2019-06-11]
-* Relaxed Timeliness dependency version to >= 0.3.10 and < 1, which allows
-  version 0.4 with threadsafety fix for use_us_formats and use_euro_formats
-  hot switching in a request.
-
-= 4.0.2 [2016-01-07]
-* Fix undefine_generated_methods ivar guard setting to false
-
-= 4.0.1 [2016-01-06]
-* Fix undefine_generated_methods thread locking bug
-* Created an ActiveModel ORM, for manual require if using without any full blown ORM
-
 = 4.0.0 [2015-12-29]
 * Extracted mongoid support into https://github.com/adzap/validates_timeliness-mongoid which is broken (not supported anymore).
 * Fixed Rails 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2 compatability issues
