Is there special support in Boost.Date_Time to support quarters, or (just)
years?
Consider the following scenario: I have a customer (or patient) whose
(exact) date of birth is not known, only that 'he was born in 1960' or
in 'May 1960' (w/o attached information on month or days).

Is there another way to handle this (and preserve knowledge about the
incomplete information) besides pretending that month (and perhaps even
day) is 1 and storing additional flags about the information being not
actually present?

Best regards
Christoph
