Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-413:
-----------------------------------
Looking at the current implementation, it seems that the constructor of
{{org.joda.time.DateTime}} is called with a {{long}} and thus is interpreted by
joda as milliseconds since 1970. So it actually is similar to Timestamp expect
that it has no explicit unit.
> DATE type is not specified clearly
