If your datefield is called date, use:

   Catalog.searchResults({'date': [ZopeTime()], 'date_usage': 'range:max'})

to get all objects with a 'date' value of maximum 'ZopeTime()'. For 
anything later than a given date, use :min instead, and if yo uspecify a 
list of dates, and specify 'range:min:max' then the highest and lowest 
values of your list will be used as boundaries.
