Status: online 		BULK DRINKING WINDOWS (v2.4.10)
At long last, I added support for setting/updating drinking windows in bulk. I initially toyed with adding a separate view, but ultimately I overhauled the Drinkability report. Now this report shows all of the drinking window values and provided edit controls for setting your personal drinking window. There is also a new "Drinking Windows" link under the Actions section of the navigation pane with sorting more conducive to this task.
FIT AND FINISH (v2.4.10)
(1) My utility page for updating producer names no longer makes spaces settable as the sortable character (to make it easier for a shaky mouse hand).
(2) The Availability web query now shows columns for ALL of the drinking window values.
(3) When adding/editing a wine, the various dropdowns should now be quite a bit faster. My dalliance with SQL table function led me to create elegant but slower means of populating these lists. I have now opted for more verbose code in the name of performance.
MISCELLANEOUS (v2.4.9)
I created a page showing all of the wine definitions and one of their iWine values for assistance with bulk imports. I tracked down a few bugs over the weekend with the help of reports from users:
(1) A number of users saw performance problems caused by view counting when browsing to their own tasting notes page.
(2) When creating a wine from scratch, browsing to the vintage screen would fail to list the vintages, and there was no button to set the vintage.
(3) Publishing a tasting note with no actual note text would trigger an error.
(4) My recently introduced bulk-publishing feature was failing, so I simplified and rewrote the client script.

ORIGINAL: Eric

The Availability web query now shows columns for ALL of the drinking window values.

I yanked this, as it was busting Ian's cool web query. I have also made a few other changes to availability that deserve deeper mention:

  1. I used to try and do smart stuff if I had incomplete drinking window data, but in hindsight a bunch of it wasn't too smart. So if you had a window with only an end-date and no start date I used to use the CURRENT date as the beginning of the window. I have now switched this to the vintage of the wine. For NV wines the window doesn't count. You need to set a complete window. If I only had a beginning date (drink starting 2005) I used to arbitrarily set the end-date 5 years later. Nope, now you need to set the end date.
  2. The report used to only count wines in inventory. Now I also include pending deliveries as part of the "inventory" count.
  3. As yet, I have not looked into the request to remove sold/traded bottles from the equations. I haven't forgotten this case, just didn't get to it this time.

Let me know if anything looks strange. This is a somewhat complex one to debug.
