I'm very sorry if this problem has been solved in some way.
No need to be sorry, as everybody can see, you did some research on this topic ;-)
But i found only discussions about duration& joda-time dated 2004. (http://markmail.org/thread/733yqv5zwzsngj3j) Now i really need in Duration functionality (especially such as Duration.parse(String)).
I heard about joda-time a while ago. My impression is, that the joda project is not that active anymore (please correct me, if I'm wrong). So I would vouch for additions to lang regarding durations. What I'm also really missing in lang.time is conversation of durations. For example: DurationUtils.convertToMinutes(long seconds).
I don't understand the Commons point on this issue. - Commons Lang doesn't need in own implementation of this functionality and you suggest use joda-time? - Commons Lang needs in simple& lightweight implementation of Duration? Also i cannot find correspond issue in jira (but Eric Crampton in 2004 wrote about "Commons Lang task list that there is a need for DateRange/Duration classes").
As you said, it is a while ago, since this was discussed. So let's review this topic again.
