Is this the death of JODA? Yes JODA website says to migrate to
java.time (not java.util.time or java.util.Date).

o
CodeHaus migration: also good ..
*

Budget helps OSGeo manage more responsibly
It is helpful to have a plan for 2017, before asking for budget to
accomplish the plan :)
Action: Take to mailing list
