Joda-Time  Download Latest
Joda-Time was created by Stephen Colebourne to replace the troublesome java.util.Date and java.util.Time classes in Java. The new classes have simpler api's and work well across version changes. Joda-Time is licensed under the MIT License.
Approved and Audited:
The Joda-Time project is reviewed by external experts (audited) and has been recommended for inclusion into the JDK. This documentation is released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.
The Joda-Time API Documentation is fully reworked to conform to Java 5 API guidelines. The compiler was changed as well to conform to the Java 5 grammar and syntax.
The project has been reviewed and verified to be compliant with the Java Development Process (JSR-000-2004): 
This was tested with Java 5u5. Problems that might occur with other Java versions are not tested for.
Other Date and Time Implementation:
The Javadoc in previous joda-time versions were in draft format (especially around java.util.Date and java.util.GregorianCalendar). These have now been fixed up and should be a better presentation of the API.
The joda-time project is related to the java.time project. Both are aimed at creating better time classes in Java. They however have different goals as the java.time project's goal is to provide an API equivalent to the Joda-Time project but on a JDK (rather than JVM) level. Therefore, joda-time aims at providing classes that are part of the Java language rather than a library.
It should be noted that joda-time is completely independent to the Java Time API (JSR-310). However, joda-time and java.time provide a consistent set of time classes that is compatible for migration. See  for more information.
Ant and Maven Integration:
Joda-Time support in Maven and Ant tasks is through a maven-joda-time JAR that is distributed by the maven-ant-plugin repository.

Joda-Time  With Registration Code [Mac/Win]
Joda-Time is a port of the popular Java class library, Joda Time, to the Java SE platform.
The API of Joda-Time allows the developers to use the same API for both the JDK and Joda-Time APIs and for the Joda-Time's API and JDK's Date and Time API.
The calendar systems supported by Joda-Time are "Gregorian", "Islamic", "Julian", "Buddhist", "Coptic", "Ethiopic" and the "ISO8601" standard.
Methods in Joda-Time API are named using camel case, e.g., "getPeriod". When appropriate, the Joda-Time documentation uses the naming convention "getNamedPeriod" where n is the number of digits in the ISO8601 standard.
In the Java API documentation, when the name of the method is preceded by a period (e.g., getPeriod), then the method is not a part of the Joda-Time API. If the method is not preceded by a period, then it is.
The Joda-Time API is based on the pattern of the JDK's Date and Time API. The JDK's Date and Time API was designed to solve the problem of class casting between the three standardized classes in the JDK (java.util.Date, java.util.Calendar, and java.util.GregorianCalendar) and the one standardized class in the Joda-Time (java.util.DateTime).
The goal of the Joda-Time API is to eliminate the need for class casting. The Joda-Time API provides for the same API to be used for both the JDK's Date and Time API and the Joda-Time API. This approach eliminates the need for conversions between the classes.
In the case of JDK's Date and Time API, the standard classes in the JDK are extended (in a manner similar to what is done with subclasses) to support the classes in Joda-Time.
For example, the JDK's Calendar class is extended to support the Joda-Time Calendar class. In addition, the JDK's Date class is extended to allow the programmer to pass in Joda-Time specific calendar objects, such as a Joda-Time DateTime object, which includes a Joda-Time Date, and a Joda-Time Time, as an argument when obtaining a Date object or a
