I'm curious how people think the following *should* be interpreted:

As you can see, implementations split into three groups here:
(a) treat as an unordered list
Markdown.pl, Python markdown, MultiMarkdown, BlueCloth,
MarkdownJ,
Showdown
(b) treat as an unordered list with an ordered sublist
PHP Markdown, Text::Markdown, Pandoc
(c) treat as an unordered list followed by an ordered list
Maruku, Discount, PEG Markdown
Nice case.. I think that what Text::Markdown is doing here (i.e.
option B) is _wrong_..
My gut feeling is that option (c) is what users expect, otherwise
they wouldn't have changed the list item marker - however if the
community has very strong feelings that (a) is more 'correct' then
I'll go with that.
Cheers
