Is there any way to create nested, ordered lists in org-mode?
I'm thinking of something that would result in:
1) item 1
a) item 1a
b) item 1b
c) item 1c
2) item 2
a) item 2a
b) item 2b
3) item 3
4) etc.
...
Thanks!

Yes!
(setq org-list-allow-alphabetical t)
Then insert
1) item 1 <= M-RET
2) ...
or
1) item 1
a) item 1a <= M-RET
b) ...
HTH,

Thanks, Bastien, but I seem to be having a problem with this. I tried
setting the variable in my .emacs, but the help says it must be set
before org-mode loads. It then gives a line of code
(when (featurep 'org-element) (load "org-element" t t))
to set this in a running Emacs, but when I do this, I get
Symbol's value as variable is void: org-drawers
I tried customizing the variable, but the result is the same.
Thanks!

Ok, quitting and re-starting emacs has almost gotten it working. I'm
not getting the error, and I am getting nested lists, but all the
numbering is numeric.
My test file had
#+STARTUP: showeverything logdone
#+options: num:nil
1) item 1
a) item 1a
b) item 1b
c) item 1c
2) item 2
a) item 2a
b) item 2b
3) item 3
4) etc.
but my html output had all list items numbered.
<ol class="org-ol">
<li>item 1
<ol class="org-ol">
<li>item 1a
</li>
<li>item 1b
</li>
<li>item 1c
</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>item 2
<ol class="org-ol">
<li>item 2a
</li>
<li>item 2b
</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>item 3
</li>
<li>etc.
</li>
</ol>
Thanks!

Thank you, Josiah.
That does explain it.
It would be nice if there were CSS classes for various numbering
schemes:
org-ol-1
org-ol-A
org-ol-a
org-ol-i
etc. Meanwhile, I'll make do.
Thanks!

You may use CSS when exporting to HTML. Let's take this small example:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
1) First item of high level
1. First item of sublevel;
2. second item of sublevel.
2) Second item of high level
1. First item of sublevel, following next high level item;
2. second item of sublevel.
Best regards.
#+END_EXAMPLE
With the following CSS high level items are numbered with digits but items of
sublevel are numbered with letters
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
ol[class="org-ol"] {
list-style-type: decimal;
}
ol[class="org-ol"] * ol[class="org-ol"] {
list-style-type: lower-alpha;
}
#+END_EXAMPLE
Of course, it would be much easier if "items" of different levels have
different classes.
