Re: Date/Birthday fields and LDAP schemas

Evolution project has this schema of their own

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/evolution-data-server/trunk/addressbook/backends/ldap/evolutionperson.schema?view=markup

and there is also Sun Messaging Server and Calendar Server schema

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4437/anobm?a=view
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4437/6n6jckqrt?a=view

these are the ones i know that define date of birth and similar
additional data. worth having a look and supporting but neither
is standard. Microsoft must have something similar of their own
defined as well.
