Johannes Graham commented on LANG-925:
--------------------------------------
The java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter class from Java 8 would seem to fulfil
comparable printing/ parsing requirements.
+1 for deprecating the bulk of the package. Given that Java 8 is required for
commons-lang anyhow it would be good to steer people to the standard classes.
> Deprecate o.a.c.lang.time.* package
