Rui Li commented on HIVE-14412:
-------------------------------
Somehow the tests worked this time. {{TestStandardObjectInspectors}} is related
because of the new type.
I'd like to get more feedback before moving on. Pinging [~sershe],
[~ashutoshc], [~xuefuz] for opinions. Do you think the proposal makes sense, or
is there better way to achieve this? Thanks.

> Java's Timestamp stores the time elapsed since the epoch. While it's by
> itself unambiguous, ambiguity comes when we parse a string into timestamp, or
> convert a timestamp to string, causing problems like HIVE-14305.
> To solve the issue, I think we should make timestamp aware of timezone.
