Date and time processing

[robert . egan]

Does Maven or one of it's plugins support date/time stamping? In 
particular, I'd like to add the build date to my Manifests with something 
like

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
  <configuration>
    <archive>
      <manifestEntries>
        ...
        <Build-Time>${now}</Build-Time>
        ...
      </manifestEntries>
    </archive>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

Thanks
Robert Egan
