Ryan Blue commented on PARQUET-137:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for looking at this, Christian! Brock is right that NanoTime is for demo 
purposes only. In fact, I wouldn't recommend building your own copy of it 
either because the "timestamp" it works with is undocumented and uses an int96 
without an annotation. We've been looking at this problem lately and we have 
defined both type annotations and specified how they should be interpreted. The 
next step is to implement those types in the object models like you've done 
here. In fact, this will be the first implementation.

The specification for date/time types is on the [LogicalTypes 
page|https://github.com/apache/incubator-parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md#datetime-types].
 If you need any help with the spec, feel free to ask questions and I'll 
clarify.
