I suggest to continue these discussions on the list
bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net that is better suited for this.

Thank you. -- I'll take a look at this page. Possibly some of your
patches might be obsolete for my version.

That's fine with me.

I already discovered some minor bugs in the version that I posted on
gnu-emacs-sources and I am sure there will be more. It will probably
be best to put my code in some openly accessible version control
system. (I do not know anything about such systems. I am a happy
user of RCS for my small projects.)

I have contacted the current official maintainer of BBDB. But up to
now I did not get any response.

Again, that's certainly fine with me. (I'll look at this.)

The old BBDB distinguished between "notes" and "raw-notes". This
distinction does not exist anymore in my code. So bbdb-record-notes
is directly defined by the macro bbdb-defstruct.

Cheers,
