Hi
Love EpPlus - looking forward to it moving to GitHub and maybe contributing at some point.
Anyway, I noticed a bug when reading dateTimes out of Excel before 1 March 1900 - it's a crazy historic bug in Microsoft Excel where they allow 29 February 1900 as a valid date for compability with Lotus 1-2-3. Brilliant...

I think my view is that it's not worth fixing, in which case it might be worth including in a known issues list - e.g. the Not Supported list here https://epplus.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FAQ&referringTitle=Documentation
Thanks!
