Jaewoong Jung updated TAJO-1191:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
When DateDatum#plus adds a time value to the self instance, it meaninglessly 
converts the time value to a local time and then converts the added value back 
to UTC, which results in error when the user time zone has a negative time 
offset.

----

(Update 12/2/2014)

After some discussions with Hyunsik and Jong-young, we concluded that DateDatum 
values must be treated as UTC values, not local times. The actual code change 
is almost the same as I originally intended, but the overall direction of this 
issue and upcoming ones are focused on aligning Tajo's timezone policy for 
date/time data types with PostgreSQL's.

Changing the summary accordingly.

  was:When DateDatum#plus adds a time value to the self instance, it 
meaninglessly converts the time value to a local time and then converts the 
added value back to UTC, which results in error when the user time zone has a 
negative time offset.

        Summary: Change DateDatum timezone to UTC  (was: DateDatum 
meaninglessly converts time to a local time before adding a time value)
