`(maintain) Copyright Notices' says: To update the list of year numbers, add each year in which you have made nontrivial changes to the package. (Here we assume you're using a publicly accessible revision control server, so that every revision installed is also immediately and automatically published.) ... So I think it is the date on which the _overall version_ is published, ie for us the date it gets pushed to staging, or the date it gets published by the submitter as a git branch (if sooner). But I doubt this really matters very much.
