A new class LocalDate is currently being developed which fulfils the
same role as YearMonthDay. Internally it has a better implementation
which allows it to return values for era, week, dayOfWeek, dayOfYear, etc.
My current intention is to add LocalDate, but not actually deprecate
YearMonthDay. All documentation would reference LocalDate, so over time
people would move over toLocalDate.
(LocalDate will have 90% the same methods as YearMonthDay so conversion
will be simple)
The same theory applies to LocalTime and TimeOfDay.
The alternative strategy would be to change the internal implementation
of YearMonthDay, but I believe that to be more risky, and would
certainly break serialization.
Opinions on this are welcome as always.
