Stephen,
thank you for your patience, explaining to me. Slooooooooowly I get
into Joda Time. I've found the base classes that I need to work with:
DateTime => a fixed date, such as "the meeting as at September 5th,
2007 10:00 am"
Period => a "length" (not to say duration) for example "the meeting
will take 2:00 hours"
LocalTime => a time independent from date or time zone, such as "we
work from 9 to 5"
