Description

Since AVRO-2079 was completed, Avro supports Java's standard java.time libraries. Please remove the Joda Time implementations and the Joda Time dependency from Avro. Avro 2.0 perhaps?

Joda-Time is the de facto standard date and time library for Java prior to Java SE 8. Users are now asked to migrate to java.time (JSR-310).
