Are we anticipating adding more conversions to these functions like the
comments indicate?
Also, small nitpick: it would be nice to rename these to something a little
more descriptive, like `toCordovaFormat` and `toNativeFormat`. `toCordova`
reads a little strangely to me.

> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin Contacts
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0
> Environment: Android and IOS
> Reporter: Kiran Jain
> Assignee: Sergey Shakhnazarov
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: Android, IOS, birthday, reproduced, triaged

> We are facing an issue while trying to add birthday to Contact while using
> Cordova for android while adding a new contact to the phonebook
> following is part of the code
> contact = navigator.contacts.create({
> "displayName": displayname
> });
> // store contact name
> var contactName = new ContactName();
> contactName.familyName = lastname;
> contactName.givenName = firstname
> contact.name = contactName;
> contact.birthday = new Date("16 May 1984");
> // save the contact
> contact.save();
> With above code, when data is viewed in android phone, the birthday is save
> as 29-12-6731 instead of expected 16-May-1984
> we have tried all possible combinations of date entry viz: 16-May-1984 ;
> 16/May/1984 ; 16/5/1984 ; new date(1984,05,16)
> but all in vain the results are the same.
> also need to know how to save anniversary date
> when using this plugin for IOS, the date saved is 15-May-1984 (1 day less
> than expected).
