Jadira Usertype: Under JDK 6 it may not be possible to handle DST transitions correctly

PROBLEM

When saving a Hibernate entity that contains Joda Time object, Jadira UserType throws the following warning:-

[WARN ] [JavaTimeZoneWorkaroundHelper] [<clinit>:40] - Under JDK 6 it may not be possible
to handle DST transitions correctly
[ERROR] [JavaTimeZoneWorkaroundHelper] [<clinit>:42] - Running under a Zone that uses
daylight saving time. To avoid incorrect datetimes being stored during DST transition,
either update to JDK 7 or use a Timezone for the JDK without Daylight Saving Time

This warning occurs when using this version:-

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jadira.usertype</groupId>
    <artifactId>usertype.core</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.0.GA</version>
</dependency>

SOLUTION

Upgrade Jadira Usertype to the latest version, and the problem goes away:-

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jadira.usertype</groupId>
    <artifactId>usertype.core</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.0.CR10</version>
</dependency>
