Dunno whether this is finalized yet, but the format of availids is not 
correctly represented by the regex. I made a comment on PR#84 but don't know 
the current status.

This assumes that the availid is alphanumeric characters from one to unbounded 
followed by a space or many spaces.
But availids (historical) might contain special characters "." or "_" and 
numbers. Should the regex be changed from
[a-z]+
to
[a-z._0-9]+
to accommodate the dozens of availids that contain special characters?


So is this PR still open?

Thanks,
Craig
