-<p>Use the <code>list</code> element to create a basic bulleted or numbered
-list. By default, lists are unordered, and list items are marked with a
-bullet or other glyph. You can select various numbering systems using the
-<code>type</code> attribute. If you need a numbered list to enumerate steps
-the reader should perform, use the <code xref="mal_block_steps">steps</code>
-element.</p>

- <item><p>The <code>list</code> element can contain an optional
- <code xref="mal_block_title">title</code> element followed by one or more
- <code>item</code> elements. Each child <code>item</code> element can
- contain a mixture of text and any
- <link xref="mal_inline">general inline elements</link>.</p></item>
-
- <item><p>The <code>list</code> element can occur in any
- general block context, including inside
- <link xref="mal_page">pages</link>, <link xref="mal_section">sections</link>,
- and certain <link xref="mal_block">block elements</link>.</p></item>
-
- <item><p>The <code>type</code> attribute allows you to select the list type,
- which affects the markers used for each list item. Allowed values are those
- from the <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-lists/">CSS
- <code>list-style-type</code> property</link>. Additionally, the value of
- <code>"numbered"</code> can be used to select a numbered list type appropriate
- for the page's language.</p></item>
-
- <item><p>If no <code>type</code> attribute is present, it is assumed to be a
- <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-lists/#glyphs">glyph type</link> such
- as <code>"disc"</code> or <code>"circle"</code>. That is, lists default to
- bulleted lists.</p></item>
-
- <item><p>The <code>style</code> attribute takes a space-separated list of
- style hints. Processing tools should adjust their behavior according to
- those style hints they understand.</p></item>
-
- <item><p>The <code>list</code> element can have attributes from external
- namespaces. See <link xref="mal_external"/> for more information
- on external-namespace attributes.</p></item>

-
- <p>Lists are displayed as block elements, with each child <code>item</code>
- displayed as a list item. When present, the title should be displayed in a
- way that makes it clear that it is the title of the list. List items are
- interpreted in the same way as <code>li</code> elements in HTML, except that
- the <code>item</code> element only allows block-level child content.</p>
-
- <p>Item markers are taken from the <code>type</code> attribute, which is
- either a valid value of the <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-lists/">CSS
- <code>list-style-type</code> property</link>, or the special value
- <code>"numbered"</code>. When the <code>"numbered"</code> type is used, a
- numeric marker type is chosen that is appropriate for the language of the
- page. The default numeric marker type per language may vary between
- implementations.</p>

- <p>The <code>list</code> element combines the functionality of the
- <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/itemizedlist.html">itemizedlist</code>
- and <code href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/orderedlist.html">orderedlist</code>
- elements in DocBook. DocBook allows leading block-level content in its list
- elements. This is not allowed in Mallard, though an optional <code>title</code>
- element is allowed. DocBook allows you to override the bullet or numbering
- type on each list item. Mallard does not allow this.</p>
