Dear LSJ!
Do cards such as Carrion Crows also count for Dawn Operation, Taste of
Vitae and similar?
I mean, is the damage from Carrion Crows with a Dawn Operation
aggrevated as well?
Does the vampire playing Carrion Crows get the lost blood (if any) from
Taste of Vitae as well as the blood lost by the opposing vampire due to
strikes?

Dawn Op makes all damage done to vampires during the combat aggravated,
including damage from Carrion Crows.
Taste of Vitae counts blood lost by damage done, so would count
any blood lost to Carrion Crows' damage.

Yes.

It has for over a year been ruled to only count blood lost due to
damage inflicted on the victim. For that same period of time, it
has been mis-reported in my errata summary posts. The mistake was
recently corrected, thanks to Karl Innes and the rest of JOLT12.
Yes, Carrion Crows' damage is "environmental'.
And yes, Taste of Vitae counts blood lost due to any damage,
environmental damage included.

I thought Taste of Vitae was most recently ruled to only count blood lost
to damage inflicted by the Tasting vampire. Carrion Crows, according to
the spoiler wording I'm looking at, looks like 'environmental' damage which
doesn't usually count for Taste (but would certainly be aggravated at Dawn).
Has something changed that I didn't notice?
Thanks,
Josh

Seems that way to me.
Taste of Vitae - combat:
Only counts damage successfully inflicted on the opposing vampire. It
will
not, for example, give blood for blood spent playing combat cards or
stolen blood. [RTR]
May be played after any strike resolution step, but will not count
blood lost during future strikes in the same round. [TOM 951217]
The blood is gained immediately, and can be used to heal damage from
future strikes, even in the same round. [TOM 951217]
***
Only counts blood lost to damage inflicted by the opposing minion.

...And for all this time I thought it was *supposed* to only count damage
that the Tasting vampire personally inflicted... Thanks for clearing that
up.
So is the 'environmental' nature of certain damage relevant only for cards
such as Pulled Fangs/Disarm and the like, now?

Yes. The "environmental" distinction only matters to cards that care
how much damage a minion inflicts. (Not to cards that care how
much damage is inflicted on a minion).

It's not new - it's old and won't die properly. :-)
The "by" should have been "on", and the whole thing shouldn't have
appeared (I know I deleted it once - I'll go delete it again).
Sorry about that.
