ok, thanks for the clarification;

im adding 

  /**
   * Create CalendarDate from msecs since epoch
   * Uses the given  Calendar.
   * @param cal calendar to use, or null for default
   * @param msecs milliseconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
   * @return CalendarDate in UTC time zone.
   */
  public static CalendarDate of(Calendar cal, long msecs);
