<div dir="ltr">Hi Gunnar,<div><br></div><div>Since Duration is really just seconds and milliseconds and any conversion is always flat (in the sense it doesn't take into account daylight savings time, for instance), I find it way less useful to support than Period and arbitrary TemporalAmounts (such as <a href="http://www.threeten.org/threeten-extra/apidocs/org/threeten/extra/Days.html">http://www.threeten.org/threeten-extra/apidocs/org/threeten/extra/Days.html</a> ).</div><div><br></div><div>That's something we should probably focus on more because they are even more fitting for use in business applications.

<br>
The first Alpha of the Bean Validation 2.0 reference implementation,<br>
Hibernate Validator 6, is available now.<br>
<br>
It implements the Early Draft 1, but also contains some more things<br>
where we thought it'd be great to get some feedback first. E.g.<br>
there's support for constraint definition using Lambda expressions.<br>
<br>
Please check out the post on <a href="http://beanvalidation.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">beanvalidation.org</a> and the full<br>
announcement on the Hibernate blog for all the details:<br>

<br>
This release gives you the opportunity to play with the things we've<br>
added so far, for instance you can experiment with custom value<br>
extractors. Any feedback is welcome.<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot to Guillaume for his hard work on this release!<br>
