[Zope] maintaining last_modified_date when copying an object

[Jens Vagelpohl]

if by last modified dat you mean "bobobase_modification_time" then no, 
there is no way. that value is generated by the underlying ZODB code 
and cannot be set.

if you have products where you want to store a modification date it is 
recommended that you set your own attribute and manipulate that 
attribute instead of relying on bobobase_modification_time, over which 
you have no control.
