* org-bbdb: anniversaries with unknown years

Hello,

I'd like to keep birthdays and similar dates in bbdb and have them shown
in my org mode agenda views.  Often, however, I do not know the year of
an anniversary, and in the case of my acquaintances the year of a
personal anniversary is often not meaningful (e.g. name days, popular in
some countries).

The solution that came to my mind was to update org-bbdg.el to also
accept dates in the format MM-DD.  org-bbdb-anniv-extract-date would
then substitute nil for unknown years.  The remaining code would make
sure that "unknown" is substituted for unknown `years'.

That solution seems fine, however it would break compatibility with the
old format of org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist, as this assumes that a
numerical value of `years' is always defined.

Before writing a patch, I would like to ask for opinions on this.

Cheers
Christoph

++ on that one. I get funny looks when asking friends what year they
were born in. Not least because I refuse to capitulate to the FaceBook
masses. org-mode might be referred to, jokingly, as Borg-mode in #emacs
but faceBook is a far more powerful force for evil .....

I think it's somewhat witty ;) Since org-mode has a contrib for just
about everything except making the morning coffee (uh oh ...) ;)

It (org-mode) has even been mentioned in Xah Lee's latest contribution
to the emacs help group as a possible replacement for the antiquated
texinfo formats required for info files ...

Thanks for adding this feature.

Carsten, could you please check this in?

The ChangeLog should mention that any customized
"org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist" has to be updated, otherwise there
will be an "Bad sexp at line 637 in /home/tb/org/diary.org:
(org-bbdb-anniversaries)" error with the new format.

Yes, this patch breaks compatibility, so this should be documented in
the proper place.  I didn't as I'm not sure about the policies of
orgmode here.
