Hi Chris,
c) would cover the last year to the current date, therefore, as I write
this it would be the period between Apr11, 2011 and Apr 10, 2012.
Therefore, the period begin and end dates would increase by one
day tomorrow. d) represents the current calendar year, thus covering Jan
1, 2012 - Apr 10, 2012 (at the moment of writing this reply).
Thanks for your suggestion, that was pretty much what we did around the
time of sending the email but we were hoping to find a way to make it more
dynamic out of Solr.
Carlos

your question, no.
my suggestion would either be to use simple keys that your front end then
uses to "translate" into what it displays to the user (ie: "curr_week",
"curr_month", "curr_year", "last_year", "old") or just have your front end
app "parse" the date math expressions itself.
