--------------------------------------------------------------

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.

>             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

>            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.
