You are officially my hero today for directing me to it.

FYI, to Indesign users: not only does InDesign not export the date into the metadata, or the opening code, but the closing code it exports is also wrong: instead of </dc:date> it writes <dc:date/> (seriously, Adobe, you have HOW many techies working for you??). So I had to add <dc:date>[my date here] and also change the closing code, so I ended up with this:

<dc:date>2011-07</dc:date>

And voila! I am so happy now.
Hey glad I could help. I'm fairly new to all this too, and usually get great advice from this forum, so I try to pass it along.

Ya the date problem is a know bug in InDesign, they should wise-up to it eventually.
