Formatting an Ethiopic Chronology date #270

Open ahassen opened 9 years ago

ahassen commented 9 years ago

When I format an Ethiopic chronology date to the format "MMM dd, YYYY" i expect the month to be displayed in a text format(as it does for the Gregorian Chronology) but instead the month is displayed in number format. i.e '1' being displayed where the month "meskerem" should be displayed.

code snippet converted date

There is no support for the textual forms of Ethiopean months in Joda-Time. It could be added, but it doesn't exist now.
