I think the property names should follow the convention used by the
other property classes for now. The property classes can best be dealt
with when (or if) Joda-Time goes Java 5 only. Then the property classes
can be replaced with generic versions instead.

There are two items on my list for the Local* classes:
a) LocalDate/LocalTime cannot be constructed using a
YearMonthDay/TimeOfDay in their constructor.
b) LocalDateTime does not have a two argument constructor to take in a
LocalDate and LocalTime.
Coding these will be a balance between defining something specific to
these classes, or using the more general ReadablePartial interface.
A secondary concern is the methods on Local*.Property. Currently,
these all use the withXxx() style naming, which differs from the rest
of Joda-Time. I want to consider whether they should use the same
naming as the rest of Joda-Time, or whether everything else should be
migrating towards the withXxx() naming (eg. DateTime.Property.set()
deprecated to DateTime.Property.withValue())
In reality, the reason for the delay with the Local* classes is that
they have emphasised some of the weaker design choices made up until
now. This leads on to bigger questions of how to address the weaknesses.
Nevertheless, I would agree that a JT1.3 release is certainly due.
