[Orgmode] setting date for org -> latex exporter |

Hi --
I'm learning more about exporting from org-mode to latex, but I've run
into a wall. I suspect there's a simple fix, but I can't find it.
I'm setting the documentclass as 'article' (using #+LATEX_CLASS:
article). I see in org-latex.el how the exporter builds the topmatter.
I'd like to do something different with the date in the topmatter.
Here's what it does now (as shown in the tex file):
\title{Here's the title}
\author{John Rakestraw}
\date{31 August 2009}
I'd like it either not to have a date at all, or to have "Fall 2009"
instead of today's date. I've tried setting the date in the org file
using "#+LATEX_HEADER: \date{Fall 2009}" and "#+LATEX_HEADER: \date{}".
But these don't change anything. (Actually, these insertions generate
the lines I expect in the tex file, but in each case it's overruled by
the line inserted by the routine in org-latex.el that inserts the
topmatter.)
I found these lines (978ff) in org-latex.el:
;; insert the date
(format "\\date{%s}\n"
(format-time-string
(or (plist-get opt-plist :date)
org-export-latex-date-format)))
This seems to imply that I can set a date option. How do I do that?
(I can get no date by commenting out these lines in org-latex.el, but
that seems a clumsy solution.)
Thanks.
