Roland is trying to establish a logical naming scheme inside BBDB so I'd rather see the backwards compatibility in Org: (unless (featurep 'bbdb3) ; or whatever (defalias 'bbdb-search-organization 'bbdb-company) (defalias 'bbdb-search-name 'bbdb-name)) ML> (defun bbdb-record-getprop (record label) ML> (and (eq label 'company) ML> (setq label 'organization)) ML> (if (memq label '(name degree organization address phone mail aka)) ML> (funcall ML> (intern ML> (concat "bbdb-record-" (symbol-name label))) ML> record) ML> (bbdb-record-note record label))) Maybe this would be better as a compatibility macro, again, working by default in BBDB3 but falling back to the older methods in BBDB2.
