HI,
It looks to me like Joda-Time is working correctly.
According to this
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/clockchange.html?n=64
DST in Chicago changes at 2am back to 1am, thus the hour from 1am to
2am occurs twice.
The time 02:00 does not occur at offset -05:00, thus Joda-Time cannot
return it, whereas 01:00 occurs twice at offsets -05:00 and -06:00.
To return a time of 02:00-05:00 is up to you - Joda-Time doesn't help
much directly with invalid times!
All I can think you can do is to use DateTimeZone.nextTransiton() to
determine if a transition has occurred and then to print a different
textual string. No Joda-Time object can hold the representation you
want, but a string can.
