--------------------------------------------------------------
PDFBOX-1187 proposes swithing pdfbox to call xmpbox instead of jempbox. If we
did this, then moving the supported version of DateConverter to xmpbox works
well. (or DateConverter could be in a separate module imported by both.)

If we stopsupport of jempbox and connect pdfbox to xmpbox, then moving the
supported version of DateConverter to xmpbox works well.

> Key: PDFBOX-1684
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1684
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Environment: Win 8, maven 3.0.5, svn 1.7.8 (r1419691), javac 1.7.0_25
> Reporter: Fred Hansen
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.0

>
> Versions of DateConverter,java are in three (3) packages: jempbox.impl,
> pdfbox.util, and xmpbox. They have diverged as updates have been made to one
> or the other.
> Date Converter is used in these modules:
> jempbox.xmp.ResourceEvent.java
> jempbox.xmp.XMPSchema.java
> pdfbox.cos.COSDictionary.java
> pdfbox.pdmodel.fdf.FDFAnnotation.java
> preflight.metadata.SynchronizedMetaDataValidation.java
> xmpbox.type.DateType.java
> The smallest library is xmpbox, so let's consider it as a home for
> DateConverter. Preflight already imports xmpbox. Pdfbox requires jempbox, so
> importing xmpbox into jempbox will satisfy both. Since xmpbox defines some
> xmp features, it seems likely that jempbox could take further advantage of
> xmpbox.
> Conclusion and recommendation: have a single copy of DateConverter in xmpbox.
