So you change the old method to a new method that takes the new type. 
It's called refactoring.  You don't duplicate methods, that's dumb.

I dislike adding a "2" onto new interface names, so I showed that coming 
up with a new name is better.  I'm sure if you really think about it, 
you can come up with a new name.  So far in the Java API, we've had 
Date, Calendar and now LocalDateTime to all mean essentially the same 
thing.  A little creativity and thought is required.
