        A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
        This method specifies "Returns the day-of-week in month adjuster, which returns a new date in the same month with the ordinal day-of-week."

        Notice the use of "in the same month". This is incorrect. As the documentation says itself: "The input 2011-12-15 for (5,TUESDAY) will return 2012-01-03." This example clearly shows that the result is not always in the same month.

        The documentation should be reworded to adequately describe the possibility of returning a date in another month.
