Re: what date libraries are you using?

Each day I pray that Java 8 won't get delayed any further and that GWT will include JSR 310 once Java 8 is released.

Currently I just avoid date manipulation code in shared classes. On client I use the Date class with its deprecated methods behind a date manipulation utility class and on the server I use JodaTime. So nothing fancy. Luckily I don't have to deal with timezones yet.

Only issues I had so far are daylight saving time issues for some dates. Looks like Linux, GWT and web browsers all have slightly different information about DST. See: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/google-web-toolkit/e7IqbcJIzTY/q04nxG_F8BkJ
