<p>JavaMoney is the new monetary API for the Java™ Platform as well as related projects and libraries.
Whereas the API (JSR 354) provides a portable and extendible API for handling of Money & Currency
models, Moneta provides a production ready reference implementation.<br/>
The JavaMoney libraries add additional functionalities that were built on top of the API such as</p>
<ul>
<li>Currency conversion</li>
<li>Currency mapping and namespaces</li>
<li>Basic financial calculations</li>
<li>Extended formatting (usable for arbitrary types)</li>
<li>Region API, allowing to organize regions, countries and territories as a forest of region trees</li>
<li>Validity API, allowing to manage the validity of arbitrary data and relations related to time (history)</li>
</ul>
<p>
Different people have contributed to this project. During the
development of JSR 354, <a href="https://github.com/atsticks"
class="user-mention">@atsticks</a> and <a
href="https://github.com/keilw" class="user-mention">@keilw</a>
