Aloha Nicolas, Thanks very much! The old LaTeXism behavior is back in my example. I probably don't understand your question fully, but it seems obvious to me that a list can either belong to a paragraph or it can be separate. I'm not certain why Org-mode would want to choose one over the other. I tend to see the question as having to do with how someone working in Org-mode indicates that a paragraph break is wanted. I do this with a blank line, as I do in LaTeX, and this seems to work. All the best, Tom -- T.S.
