Allow removal of unnecessary fields in cookiecutter.json #16
Description
I removed "version", "year", and "release date" from cookiecutter.json since they aren't really applicable to the template I'm creating. When I run the cookiecutter script, I get the following traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):

When I put those properties back, the script runs fine.
It would be nice if one could remove properties and still run the script, though.
