color:blue'>I repeat my plea not that no one should misuse this subdivision to
group items by publication dates of editions. If it’s truly
free-floating, then you’re free <i>not</i> to use it, should it be truly
inapplicable within a discipline or, to your mind, disrespectful of the work.
If you want to group by publication date, program your catalog to make use of
relevant information elsewhere in the record (260 $c or fixed field dates) to
limit searches; or devise a local chronological index, if you need the
additional data element.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:blue'>In short, please let’s not expand its scope to index <i>either</i>
date of composition (of work/expression) <i>or</i> date of publication (of
manifestation). Functional ambiguity of this kind is death to a catalog and bad
for FRBR (which I regard as rather a pipe dream, absent a lot of
“cataloger judgment”, but useful as an abstract guiding principle,
to remind us that we’re constructing catalogs).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
