G'Day Paul,

Thank you for raising this issue.

As someone who has performed archaeology on Qt many times over the years, I
would prefer to keep the \since data intact. In the past, this information
has saved me time by helping me to narrow down my investigations to a much
shorter segment of Qt's history.

I therefore fully support your proposal.

(Yes, I know that the same information can usually be obtained from git
blame, but that can be a right royal pain in the backside if code has moved
around or undergone significant refactoring after its initial addition, or
comes from the Dark Ages before the birth of the public git repo.)

Cheers,
