iPhone Cigar App RELEASED!

I'm full of questions ...

Let's say I edit info on one of the cigars on the MobileStogie server. Do my edits stick (for me) or will they be overwritten when the app is receives updates?

If you edit one of the reference cigars that is already in my database, and I subsequently edit the same cigar, it will overwrite your edits . Not sure of the best way to avoid that, other than to ask you to let me know what I have wrong in the reference data, so I can fix it for everybody

I could change the code so that it flags the cigars that you edit, and then you would not get edits from the main database for that same cigar. It would create bit of complexity in the code, but it's certainly doable. Unfortunately, I would have to submit a new update to Apple in order to make that change. I can see both sides of it; what do you think?

I imagine you've noticed a LOT of updates recently. Those are mainly significant cleanup that I've been doing to Origin, Binder, Filler and Wrapper data, fixing a lot of inconsistencies, spelling errors, and a bunch of data that was truncated in the iPhone database (had the wrong field length in my online database for a while).

Everyday there's more coding to do...
