The difference between this time and UTC is ( Zone Offset + DST offset ).
I think here this feature does not need to describe the LOCAL time nothing
but the timestamp and that is in UTC. It makes sense that the plugins use
particular FORMAT, forinstance platform format of predefined format by the
Maven. It is save to manipulate with the UTC time even if you use it a
minute before DST or after. The UTC will be always precisely understood
exact clock by Java and Maven too.
