Hi!

In short: 

  Personally I do think that org-aganda-week-view[1] and
  org-agenda-month-view behave differently. The first one shows
  today and the upcoming six days whereas the month view shows the
  current calendar month, independent of the current day.

Example problem:

  Last week I started to use calendar export to ics/Google Calendar.
  Therefore I am using org-agenda-month-view to narrow down my data
  that gets exported.  

  If I export my agenda today, I only get about a week of agenda
  days I am interested (upcoming schedule) and more than three weeks
  of agenda days that are of no use for me any more (past).

I propose:

  I'd personally prefer org-agenda-month-view showing today and the
  upcoming 30 days instead.


  1. There is a bug in the documentation btw: instead of
     «org-aganda-week-view» there is «org-aganda-day-view» on
     http://orgmode.org/org.html#Agenda-commands
