Till,

That's great - good to know what was happening. Thanks for taking it to the Solr list.

Michael.

Taking this over to the solrmarc list, because it seems to be a bug in 
solrmarc:

Pattern FOUR_DIGIT_PATTERN_STARTING_WITH_1_2 in class Utils is defined 
as (200|1[98765][0-9])[0-9]. That doesn't match the value "2010." you 
have in field 260 $c.
  and then update RC2 as well as the trunkChanging the pattern to 
(2\\d{2,2}|1[98765][0-9])[0-9] should do the job for the next 989 
years... Same applies for patterns FOUR_DIGIT_PATTERN_OTHER_3 and 
FOUR_DIGIT_PATTERN_OTHER_4.
Though I am not sure, if the original programmer of these lines had 
something special in mind when she/he defined those patterns like this 
(why not (1/2)\\d{3,3})?
If not, I suggest changing those patterns in class Utils of solrmarc.

Michael: Because we rely on solrmarc for indexing in VuFind, there is no 
immediate fix in VuFind for this. I'd say, we update VuFind (RC2 and the 
trunk) as soon as this is fixed in solrmarc... I hope, that's ok for you.
