Chuck Deal updated WICKET-466:
------------------------------

    Description: 
I beleive the Wicket-datetime package was designed to be used with joda-time 
DateTime objects.  It was also desirable to apply the "better" parsing/toString 
features of DateTime to util.Date objects.  To that end, the attached patch 
improves the focus of the Converter to be DateTime oriented, while still 
allowing the DateTextField to hold util.Dates in it's model.

The main idea of this patch is to make this package work with DateTime objects 
with very little effort on the developer's part.  If they want to take 
advantage of the improved parsing, etc then it should take minimal effort.

See http://www.nabble.com/-datetime--DateConverter-tf3233793.html for a brief 
history of this conversation.
