Hi,
First, thank you to all Org-mode contributors, it is a marvelous
productivity tool and truly lives up to its motto of managing life in
plain text.
Now on to a possible bug. :) I have noticed that when I include named
footnotes within an unordered list, the LaTeX exported file has
problems, and mixes in the text (after the first word) of a named
footnote directly within the text of the unordered list item. Named
footnotes that are in ordered lists are exported without a problem.
This bug may be the same one that was described in this message, though
the OP didn't provide follow-up information:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/23637/
...also, I think the problem does not happen with numbered footnotes in
unordered lists, as the single response message by Matt Lundin showed.
I'm using a current (git-pulled as of this morning) version of Org-mode,
with Emacs 23.2.50. An example .org file to test (and hopefully
reproduce) the problem is included below; the problem can be seen by
doing an export to LaTeX (with optional view in PDF).
Thanks in advance for any help/debugging,
Kai
Test Orgmode's Handling of Named Footnotes
* Intro
This is the opening paragraph, without much to say at the moment. But
forsooth, let us praise Lisp.
* A Bit About John McCarthy
- Lisp was created and designed by John McCarthy.[fn:Lisp_origin]
- McCarthy's first publication on Lisp was "Recursive Functions of
Symbolic Expressions and Their Computation by Machine (Part
I)."[fn:First_Lisp_paper]
* Lisp's Amazingness
1. What's amazing about Lisp is how small the core language is; it's
the computing equivalent of Maxwell's equations! Originally McCarthy
described just seven functions and two special forms:
- atom, car, cdr, cond, cons, eq, quote, lambda, label
2. 50 years on, other programming languages are finally beginning to
approach Lisp's power and generality.[fn:Graham_on_Lisp]

I don't want to sound arrogant, but this bug should already be fixed
in my list improvement branch. Could you confirm it?
There's one problem left though: underscores in first URL are
interpreted as math text, producing strange results.

Thanks for the fast response. Yes, the bug is fixed in your list improvement
branch, thank you. When will those improvements be merged to trunk/master?
And yes, Nicolas has spotted a new bug from my example, caused by parenthesized
underscores in hyperlinks that are interpreted incorrectly.

If some people get this branch and test it *extensively*, and report
back here,
then it will happen sooner.
