TransformMarcToKoha already picks the first year from copyrightdate; this is not changed. In the new code it will handle fields sorted by tag. So 260 will be handled before 264. Within the same tag, it will handle fields based on their order in the MARC record itself. With 1950 in field 260 and 1960 in field 264, a string results like ‘1950 | 1960’. In case of copyrightdate the current logic of picking the first year (from 260 in this example) will be applied. So returning 1950. I assume that the example of a 260 and a 264 is rare, but I can imagine that there are multiple 264s in a RDA record. In that case it depends on the order of the 264s in the MARC.
