Yes; your field is a required field, so you will need to provide
timestamp data. DateFields store their data in datatime format; so you
will need to do something like:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> o.timestamp = datetime(2007,7,30)

To assist with form handling, Django also allows string inputs to date fields:

>>> o.timestamp = "2007-07-30"

For this one, try:

>>> o.timestamp = datetime.now()
