The module has had a complete overhaul, all code has been scrutinized and rewritten where needed. It now depends on the Profile module, borrowing some nice features. All bugs related to displaying and selecting birthdays are believed to be fixed. Please test this version thoroughly on your user base, and report any bugs. We hope to release a final release after we receive some feedback.
