It would be nice to mention this in the contrib section of the wiki. However, I think it would be nicer to try to get this into the code base and then, on the wiki, mention that there is such and such package for adding creation timestamps. This seems to me more elegant than putting the code in the contrib page and telling users to paste it into their emacs configuration files (I assume that this is what you had in mind when you said "Perhaps I'll just add a page to the contrib section of the wiki"). Because of all the interest in planning and organization software, planner stands to be used by a wider community of people than those who are familiar with the emacs wiki and hacking emacs configuration files. I see the planner as similar to AUCTeX: many people want to use the package, but may not be familiar with or intimidated by hacking emacs. It seems to me best to try to write this up as an extension package and put it in the planner code base with extensive documentation, so that people can just start using your code straight away without having to go to the emacs wiki.
