I have no idea what you are doing.

1) <dc:date> is used for the published date

2) You cannot control the date field via the OPF since the date field always shows the date the book was added to calibre regardless of the value of calibre:timestamp

It is nonsense to not put a time into a timestamp field. When you put in only a date what you are actually doing is saying the date is what you say it is +- 1 day depending on which timezone the person interpreting the date is in. Not to mentiont hat plenty of publications can have intra day publication dates.
