For birthdays, I wrote a perl script that will extract all birthdays for the current month (only if the user has "allowed" birthday display), and displays the month/day, and their pdn (as a link to their profile).
All you'd need to do is plug in your paths, modify the html to format it the way you want, then put a link to it in your forum headers.
You can remove the test for "current month" if you want to show them for the whole year. Let me know if you'd like a copy.
