I'm planning to get rid of piggybank datetime stuff and make
jodatime a core
dependency to these builtin functions. No REGISTER required.

So is your plan to package the jodatime dependency as part of
piggybank or
will it require 2 REGISTER jar commands one for piggybank and one
for joda?

I was planning to rely completely on Jodatime there, and I believe
its
default behavior is to use the local timezone of the machine it is
on.
ISO
time encodes the time zone, and jodatime does the conversions back
and
forth, taking it into account.
Should this be a pig config field? You can specify a timezone in
jodatime,
so that should work out ok, it would limit hadoop node shenanigans.

I wonder if we can pull timezone support into the system... So
some day
I
can say things like
'jiffies between 11am EST and 13:11 IST'
and get back the correct answer in PigLatin.
also, how does ISO time know the current time zone?
I've seen people run into this situation where the compute node
and name
node are in different time zones (by accident of course, they're
physically
in the same room), and it produces some problems that are
difficult to
track
down.
so, at least your UnixToISO will need to have some kind of
convention
for
knowing what timezone to send it into, right? What's the plan
there?

I though I would ping pig-user about this to get comments. I
put a
proposal
for builtin date functions I can have ready for Pig 0.8 at
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1430
There are so many classes to add a type, given my time
constraints I
don't
see the benefit of a full datetime type over this proposal right
now.
These
functions should be backwards compatible with a full-blown
datetime
type.
