* Bug: ordered lists after unordered

Hello all, 

I think I've found a bug with the way org-meta-return behaves. I
occasionally need to follow an unordered list by an ordered list,
without any intervening text.  For example:

* Some heading
  - unordered
  - unordered
  - unordered

  1) ordered

I normally use M-<return> (org-meta-return) to add a new item to a list.
But in this kind of situation, using M-<return> to insert the next
ordered list item displays the message "Not in an item" and modifies the
above lists to look like this:

* Some heading
  1  - unordered
  - unordered
  - unordered

  1) ordered

  1)

And point ends up after the first "1", before the first "-" in the
unordered list.

(If the ordered and unordered lists are reversed, M-<return> doesn't act
quite so strangely, though it does convert any items in the unordered
list into ordered list items.  This might be a feature; but it's not the
behavior I personally would prefer.)

I am using Org version 7.01trans.

Thanks!

Best,
Richard Lawrence

This behavior has been fixed in development version of Org mode. You
may upgrade.

By the way, please note that, by default, you now need to insert two
blank lines to separate lists (that is unless you set
`org-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists' to t).

Great!  Pulling from git fixed this issue for me.

Thanks for the tip!
