Easiest migration would be a SimpleDateFormat that was extended or wrapped to 
understand the NSTimestampFromatter symbols.  Or perhaps the same for 
DateTimeFormatter from Joda Time?  I am not sure if we should stick with core 
Java classes for the core functionality, or go for fancy with Joda and add a 
dependancy.
