What about:

    To assist project planning, TODO items can be labeled with a date
    and/or a time.  The specially formatted string carrying the date and
    time information is called a /timestamp/ in Org mode.  This may be
    a little confusing because timestamp is often used as indicating when
    something was created or last changed.  However, in Org mode this term
    is used in a much wider sense.

    Timestamps can be used to plan appointments, schedule tasks, set
    deadlines, track time, and more.  The following sections describe
    the timestamp format and tooling that Org mode provides for common
    use cases dealing with time and time intervals.
