Owen O'Malley commented on ORC-661:
-----------------------------------
I've create a new issue to avoid using the mis-used ORC-370 label.
> DateColumnStatistics uses Date, which is not timezone agnostic.

> Project: ORC
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Owen O'Malley
> Assignee: Owen O'Malley
> Priority: Major
>
> Java's Date class is horribly broken and should not be used. Unfortunately,
> we used it to return the results of the min/max for ColumnStatistics. That
> leads to lots of problems.
> To fix this, we'll create new API methods that return it both as day of epoch
> and LocalDate. Both of them work much better.
