well

just sample

step 1 make odf file (odt) with included date and/or time fields

step 2 go to http://cms.schematronic.org/add-content.action (it use
XForms at now - so Firefox with XForms plugin - maybe Amaya - i am not
sure)

step 3 fill url field (/my-own-test for example) and point to odt file
upload field then press publish button

step 4 goto http://cms.schematronic.org/my-own-test (or url you
entered at previous step) and see your content with current date
and/or time
