Log:
Add a releaseDate to a product, mostly informational, intended to mean
when the product was first assembled for purchase, or, for books, when
it was published initially.
You could always consider adding this description to the field
definition.
Wouldn't that make more sense in an inventory item? Our houses have
release dates (when they are ready to ship) but they are inventory items
- not products.

There's no inventory available to be purchased yet, so no inventory
record can possibily exist.  This is a completely different situation
then an book being under current publication, but out of stock.

We use this field to filter products from display, within a window of
4 months into the future, and allow users to back-order the product
before it has been published.

That makes sense.
